Used my GPS to map out an altitude profile for my commute today... below is what it looks like... this is the "to work" direction...



I know that the fuel gauge is relatively inaccurate (I "lost" 1/4 tank taking a fwy on-ramp then it slowly "came back" over the next few mins ), but nevertheless, I'm kinda bummed that I've only gone ~160 miles by half tank...

Windshield is fixed, clock is on it's way, and will prolly look at fixing climate control lights and adding a "lights on" buzzer this weekend.

EDIT: Realized that I left out a few data points on my graph... was half asleep when I put the graph together...
