The end result was merely on par with my 90 day average. I guess I can't complain; 38.2 mpg in suboptimal conditions is still good. I remember how excited I was when I hit 36 mpg for the first time. I bragged about it to my friends for weeks! Now 38 mpg is typical. Just wait until hypermile season kicks in!

Same with me. Had the best tank ever to 1/4 mark then 3 days of freezing rain and turned into a I'm happy with that.
That's a great tank with the weather. I was looking at gaslogs to see who has the least amount of noise. DRW you're one of the best as far as consistancy goes. Just looking at gaslogs varibility is proof enough that tank to tank testing is pretty much impossible.
I like you can not wait till it warms up to see what results will appear. Lots of folks are still improving in the winter. The top 10 list will be interesting( time for a new thread with perdictions).
