who mpg's high as mine (not really asking)

the computed calculation is not necessarily accurate...

this was demonstrated in an episode of mythbusters where they tried to figure out if using the A/C burned more gas.

the computer makes assumptions and calculations based on those industry standards. it serves as a 'rough' estimate, and is fairly close to the number. however the main concern here is the summation and/or multiplication of error.

anecdotally, my v8, compared to others, is a great engine. i order to measure useage, i wouldn't rely on the computer to calculate mileage per gallon. in fact, i'd use a direct conduit to the combustion chamber to measure fuel use.
 
Yea, u said that in post #75 lol. I kno its not accurate. But its not like its 3+ mpgs off also. So its close to what I'm actually getting
