Ive been using that sight for 6-9 months. After gas made one of its large jumps last summer, my shop started getting lots of gas mileage complaints. 75% of the people were telling me "it used to take $20 to fill a tank, now it takes $30." I then had to do the math for them, and finally was able to tell them that they were getting the same mileage. :shakeshead:
I then found this website so that I could tell them what was "normal" and the fact that their erratic driving was the difference. I always thought that figuring out gas mileage was a simple thing, but apparently the common driver isnt able to understand what "miles per gallon" means. :shrug:
