But of course Commute Bike gets infinite mpg! Though maybe not quite so useful in winter. :-(

I passed 1000 miles on my tank, with about 1/8 fill remaining. 93.4 mpg. Looks like I have about 100 miles above my 1133-mile record, so 1200 should be toast. I'm pushing myself to toast it by a lot.

I eeked out a mere 40.2mpg on my first tank. I probably shouldn't join the team then.

Granted, I intentionally didn't do anything to the car to get a baseline mileage, not even checking the tire pressure. I had the A/C on most of the time (90°F or more most of last week) and tire pressures ranged from 30 to 17psi (now 44psi front, 35psi rear).

I've also moved my Ultragauge from the truck to the Civic (I think I reset everything, but I'm getting wierd readings on the Engine Load gauge. Idle is about 15%, cruise is about 60% load, 3/4 throttle is about 96%, full throttle is 99%). This may require a little calibration still, it's showing a little less than my baseline so far, in spite of making more of an attempt at efficiency.

I think I can feel when Lean Burn engages and disengages (feels like a slight stumble or surge, respectively), but it seems very difficult to keep it there.

All you really need to do is edit your description in the garage and it will redo the 90 day avg.

OK - before entering tonight's fillup, we're dead even with Team Metro at 54.36 mpg.

Entered fillup:

Yay!! Now we're ahead of Team Metro, 54.52 to 54.36. Just squeaked past. Sorry I only pulled 54.73 mpg on this tank, but that's what I could do.

Now you Team Honda guys getting in the 30's and low 40's mpg, can you improve even a bit to help us along?

Funny. I would think it should go up.I tried refreshing the team standings page and no change.

Maybe someone else also entered a fillup that negated your contribution. Or the server is on dinner break. I dunno.

Try hit refresh for your page with the graph on it. That's needed to update your graph, maybe it also updates the team standings.

Nice work, anyway! 78.77 mpg is good stuff!

Just added my best tank ever @57! We are still at 54.52? Maybe it does not calculate on the fly to keep the (server) overhead down?
