Aaaagh, I hate that! MPH MPH MPH!!! If I COULD get 60-60 mpG while cruising, that would be sweet, though.

I'm working on getting the first week update put together -- the first and last updates are always the most time-consuming (with this one, it's making sure the 90-day averages are calculated properly, adding new teams/members, etc.)

I haven't forgot -- it's in the works

Best FE,

The Commish

Filled last evening, 478.0 miles on 6.676 US gallons = 71.60 mpg. New record for me

Amazing! Yesterday as I was driving home, I thought: I bet jwxr7 is getting close to 70...

Welcome to Part II of the Fuel Economy Team Challenge. In this round, you'll find a new team, "The Leftover Bananas", and some changes to existing teams. I generally try to get the results posted by Tuesday to give teams an idea of standings and accomplishments thus far. So, Wednesday's not so bad, right?
