Yes, Ryland, that's correct. I'm just tracking gasoline use and MPG NOT eMPG.

I've played around a bit checking how much wall power I used and checking that against the MIT "gas into electric" conversion numbers. So far, it seems like if I HADN'T been using electricity from the Hymotion pack I'd be getting 65-70 mpg.

Of course I can't get gasoline from my wall plug, solar panels, or the wind turbine I'm connected to remotely through my local indie power company.
