LYC - my fuel log and analysis for the trip. From leaving with a full tank through my last fill-up in Needles.

Posted by MojaveMeg (aka Mojave) Aug 19 '12, 22:09

1,698 miles (final total will be +256) 86.27 gallons for an average MPG of 19.68.

Naturally, the days we caravaned behind a man that drives at - or below - the limit (65-70 mph)I got about 2 MPG better than the days I was by myself and doing limit +5 :)

I know for many of you that MPG is unacceptable but it's one of my few indulgences...so humor me :)

- $321.72 :) Lowest $3.29 in Grants and Santo Domingo Pueblo, and highest $4.90 in Needles. I knew I should have topped up on the Arizona side but - MojaveMeg Aug 19, 22:22
