I just did this once to get a rough idea of the costs of operation with my new car. The trip consisted of Interstate, highway, and city traffic so it would be a real world result. Without running the battery completely dead for every drive this would be way too difficult to keep a log of since I'd have to use a scan tool to run the math on how much battery I consumed every time I drove. However I will do this again once I repair the car cause this drive revealed the car isn't working correctly. Currently the A/C is broken and I found out the car uses the AC to cool the batteries. I got the turtle while on the interstate and battery temp warning. That was about halfway through my journey and up to that point I was only 20% into the battery, took me the rest of the 80% to finish the trip and I barely made it. I am hoping I just need to recharge the AC but my theory is once the battery overheated it ran the AC compressor non-stop in an attempt to cool the batteries. I could be wrong but once I get the AC repaired I'll know for sure."
