I not being cynical. I am all about marketing and driving business.
I love it!
But you have to be realists.
No, you miss the point. Entering in fuel logs is actual important information. It's what got me, and I'm sure many others, to this site to begin with. It's also what keeps me coming back. I like to compare my vehicles to what others are getting for MPGs out in the real world. 90% of the posts on this site are irrelevant to me. There are interesting builds and driving techniques here and there but it's the hard stats that keep me coming back. Aero-mods, stripping interiors and most hypermiling techniques can be interesting reads but that's it. An interesting read. It's nothing I'm going to do. I'm willing to bet that's the case with the majority of the members on this site.

But if I have to be a realist......
