I'd like to chime in here. I think I've got a good idea of exactly how much functionality the Fuelly team wants to put into the site; it is a fairly basic gas-logger that caters to everyone, thus features that only cater to a certain minority of cases (such as iphone users) are rarely in the scope of the project, especially with fuelly not being a revenue-generating site.
Nevertheless, I think this might be a good feature to include for accuracy's sake. While browsing I've noticed many cars with a reasonable average MPG and an astronomically high best tank, obviously an indicator that somebody added mileage from two tanks together or something along those lines. Far as I can tell it's mostly a problem for the odometer users rather than the trip-odometer users. But just giving a warning to double-check the input numbers might be worthwhile for everybody.
The problem lies in determining the "range" for each car. It could be something as simple as a tank with 25% better mileage than the current best. That probably would be easiest.
Just my 2 cents
