This past week has been an eye opener. I have been learning that every little bit counts, only in the wrong direction.
A freeway trip with a full load of passengers (no EOC) in the rain.
Dealing with 6 inches of new snow and freezing weather.
Plus, I found out why my Peug does not coast as well as my Jetta, a massively dragging rear brake. Noticed it when I was driving in the snow, the car would not get moving and was a bit squirrelly. A quick inspection revealed  a long trench dug in the snow from a completely non-rotating wheel dragging along.....will have to get on that quickly!!!!
This tank is moving down quickly (relatively anyway) only about 180 mile for the first quarter compared to nearly 200 last tank.
Every little bit counts!!
