If I didn't lose a gas receipt (there were two) this is accurate. Includes a partial fill that was intended to be a full fill which I didn't pre-pay quite enough for. Actual price is a penny less than posted.

After I filled this up about 25-40 miles later the brakes seemed to be acting up, vibrating the car. (Edit, Sept. 2020: The rear drum springs were too worn.) I didn't have as much coasting distance, so this upcoming tank may be lower, though it might mostly count as HWY driving.

Speedometer's still incorrect. Mileage on odometer said 615.65 so it's between the posted mileage and 22.49.

Counting a partial fill of 4.001 at Clarion Sheetz. The other 13.085 was at Clarion University Korner. Same price at both. Mileage is still incorrect, probably by 2.2 per hundred miles so it's 7.7 miles off. (read: 353.75, actual: probably closer to 346.05)

Tailpipe gave out at about 180-185 into the tank so the pipe was replaced.

I put Amsoil 75w90 Severe Gear Oil in the Differential during this tank. This tank includes a few partial fills and I believe I'm missing at least one so this tank is likely invalid:

2015-December-4: 4 Gallons of 100% Gas at $2.999 at County Fair Pump 13 (Route 322 West a few miles from Clarion) Added 12 Oz. Methanol Antifreeze Here. (Found a bottle for free.)

2016-March-7: 5.002 Gallons of 87 w/up to 10% Eth. ($1.999 per.) at Sheetz Clarion PA Pump 2.

2016-April-1: 13.163 Gallons of 87 (Up to 10% eth.) at Sheetz Pump #9 in Cranberry (The one by Seneca, not Cranberry Twp.) PA. Put in 12 Oz. of HEET Methanol on the way home ($1.68 w/tax).

I also think the "Miles Traveled" meter, odometer and speedometer are all off. If I'm going 59 on the speedometer the GPS says I'm going 55, so MPG figures are actually slightly less than reported as of yet.

*Price per gallon is actually $2.2985, it was $50.95 to fill this many*

Stuff noted for previous tank in last paragraph still applies to this tank.

(First actual MPG Reading for this car.)

Filled up at BP (Or is it a 7/11?) Pump 3 in front of Whole Foods in Wexford, PA.

Tires were around 35 for this tank, A/C used and had roof-rack on car and all mud-flaps. Oil needs changed along with Transmission fluid and other stuff, at this time.

(It really cost $50.17 for this fill. One cent too low.)

First fill-up soon after buying the car. Filled up with 87, tires not checked at fill-up.

Important note: The "Distance since last fill" mark is completely off so don't count it in "Distance Traveled"; The car was bought and 18.4 miles later was filled up. I only have this first fill here as a starting point to track how much is spent and how much fuel was put in. I stuck the miles at a certain number just to get at an even 18 MPG; The MPG figure and miles since last fill-up are meaningless.

Note: At $3.599 and 18 MPG, That's 20 cents per mile.
