2010-07-13	304.8	8.956	$2.769	34.03	"Very first tank after replacing the engine and getting it on the road. The first quarter tank was running really rich as I didn't have the vacuum lines hooked up properly. This was mostly around town driving with two commutes to work, 50mi round trip. I am shocked at how low the EPA rating is. I'm already above that and haven't employed any hypermiling techniques."
2010-07-18	403.7	9.083	$2.89	44.45	"Mostly commutes. Some city driving. No vacuum gauge or kill switch yet. Tires need inflation too."
2010-07-26	426.3	9.989	$2.829	42.68	"Normal driving, commute. Used A/C a lot even though it doesn't work very well."
2010-08-02	444.7	9.83	$2.849	45.24	"Commutes mostly @ 55mph. Wife used it for one commute. Lots of freeway miles."
2010-08-09	481	9.798	$2.909	49.09	"New tires and alignment about half way through the tank. More EOC. Have vacuum gauge installed but not mounted yet, not really using it."
2010-08-16	522.2	9.83	$2.899	53.12	"Lots of freeway @55mph. Tires @ 50psi, alignment, EOC."
2010-08-25	492.8	10.07	$2.929	48.94	"Mostly freeway commutes, more city driving this tank. Didn't EOC as much this time."
2010-09-17	511.2	10.14	$2.859	50.41	"None"
2010-09-23	494	9.402	$2.899	52.54	"None. Not as much EOC. Purchased good to install kill switch and remote starter. I'm trying to determine how to mount it."
2010-10-04	446.1	8.927	$2.829	49.97	"Normal commute, haven't checked the tires in awhile, weather's changing, need to check pressure and start a grill block."
2010-10-11	490.1	9.605	$2.759	51.03	"Normal freeway driving. Haven't checked the tire pressure in awhile."
2010-10-16	459.3	9.047	$2.819	50.77	"Tried freeway driving between 60-65 instead of the usual 55 mph. Not much difference. Still need to check and adjust tire pressure."
2010-10-23	449.9	9.502	$2.789	47.35	"I tried driving 60-65 to see how much of a difference it would make. Weather is cooling down. I need to install some kind of grill block as it takes forever to warm up and cools down very quickly. I put in a lower temperature thermostat, I think 160* if I remember right. I should have got with the 180*. I might switch it out if I get bored. Haven't checked the tires lately either I'm guessing they're down to the 35-40 range."
2010-11-01	450.6	9.893	$2.729	45.55	"Weather has gotten much colder. I checked the tires today, they were at 40psi. I increased pressure up to 55. Hopefully that will help. I'm still going 60-65 on the freeway. Still need a grill block of some sort. I've done some basic renderings in MS Paint of some aero mods that I think would help considerable. It looks kind of like an 80's Citroen hatch back. Maybe some day."
