Thanks and Suggestions from New Sonic Owner!

[ChicksHateMe]

Hi,

Thanks for the site. It's awesome. I wish I had thought of it

I found it after I visited the SonicOwnersForum.com and saw it in someones signature. Great idea......

New, so not sure where to put a suggestion, but here it is;

I wish in the LOG I could have two more columns.

OCTANE
% Change

That way, as I look from fill-up to fill-up, I could see what % change I am getting in MPG. Something like

+2.3 (In Green)
or
- 1.1 (In Red)

With the Octane column, I could record the Octane I use, to see if it actually makes a difference.

If it was to be retro, people could just enter a default Octane to start with, so it could back fill old log entries, or just leave them blank.

The calculation would only have to be calculated if there was a change or a new addition, or a change in two entries in a row, so it wouldn't tax the server with calculations.....

Just a thought... Probably already suggested, but in a search I didn't find it.


Thanks again for such a great site. I am glad I stated with my first fill-ups

Fuelly will report a fill-up to fill-up change as an amount of mpgs or L/100km or whatever. You can also add the vehicles fuel economy ratings to its entry, and see the difference between your average. I recently suggested that should be in percentage.

As to the octane, I think just tracking in the notes per fill-up is enough. It is what I do, and only a small amount of cars will show a difference. Then a smaller amount of people will experiment with it.
