I've been dropping in and doing quite a bit of reading, but this may be my first post. I recently bought a 1993 Dodge D250 with the Cummins diesel engine. I started a fuel log, but don't expect to update it all that often as this is my 3rd vehicle. My most economical vehicle at the moment is my 1998 Honda VFR 800 and it generally gets me about 41 MPG as I ride it with some enthusiasm. I'll get a fuel log going for it as well.

To achieve the greatest reduction in fuel consumption I am looking at giving my 1998 Subaru Outback to my Mom as she doesn't drive much any more and picking up a late model used Ford Fiesta. Other fuel use reduction measures include riding the motorcycle more frequently and some aero mods to my pickup. There is some low hanging fruit in removing the tall cap from the truck bed. Once I have enough posts I'll show you all what I'm working with.
