[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 1009491, member: 52972"] Thanks Gavin, You pointed out exactly what I have been trying to get Dean to understand. MPG reading from small trips are often highly inaccurate. Regardless of how accurate you try to be, very small discrepancies in the Mileage, or gallons of gas used have the potential to create very sizable errors in calculating an Average because you only have a few data sources to use as input. Dean, The fact that you made one error in the mileage makes me suspicious of all your numbers. They very well be inaccurate or simply made up.. As I previously said, I don't care what your MPG is, but I do object to posting exaggerated gas mileage figures based on short trips and inaccurate measurements. That's all I care to say on this subject !! ...Rich [/QUOTE]
