I'm in PA and put around 1000 miles per month on. Is that enough mileage and in the geographic area you are looking for?

Yup

Do you keep track of your gas milage?

I need someone that doesn't depend on the dash for MPG.

Need someone to fill up the tank and do some quick math

Are you on 91 or 93?

Have you been keeping track of your gas milage?

From Minnesota here, but I drive mostly freeway and track actual mileage every fill up. I have 2200 miles on it and have been running 93 since 150 miles.

Yes, I manually calculate each tank via using the trip meter and dividing number of miles driven by number of gallons purchased. I don't trust the computer in the car. My first tank it was within .2 MPG, but since then it seems that it's off by 1-1.5 MPG's.

The Fuelly thing in my sig shows my actual MPG but my car shows 27.9-28.0. My most recent tank had a fair amount of "spirited" driving so that's why it was worse. I'm actually on "E" now and I'm going to fill up tomorrow so I'll see how efficient this last tank was. My last 3 tanks were Shell V-Power 93 and so was the first tank. In between I believe I had two tanks of Sheetz 92.

Currently at 2100 miles or so if that matters to you at all. Would you want me to drive it as I normally would? As in, normal (shift before 4k or sooner) for the most part with the occasional sprint to redline or conservative the entire time.

I'm in south central CT. I use Fuelly to track mileage. I put 1800 miles on in my first month.

Check my fuelly - 93 octane. I don't trust the computer avg mpg since its between 1-2 mpg off. The first few fillups I was having a bit more fun, so the mpgs are noticeably lower.

PM sent..I live in the bronx and drive to long island everyday for work..about a 70 mile round trip everyday. i use 93 and calculate my trips using dash, torque android app via bluetooth obd2, and simple math to get an accurate number
