Covid mpg

Gas is cheap.

Time to see how low mpg you can get

 

After a cold ass winter that made me have to idle my MPG numbers way down, I am actually looking forward to better MPGs. Though, with the BAMuffler system, my foot is still pretty heavy at times.

 

11.4 which is down from almost 14 since it warmed up here. They are practically giving gas away, screw it. Highways are clear (unspoken keep it under 100 here in CT), cops are hiding in town, its a shit show out there and I love it.

 

Same in Austin, not pulling folks over unless the offense is obscene, mpgs have dropped cuz no highway miles going to work downtown by capitol no 'mo, just local driving for take out...I'm guessing at this point I won't go back to office until July-Aug, Sept maybe, at best....

 

I still see the NYPD out on the highways pulling speeders over. My mpg is low since I do short city trips to the supermarkets.

 

Mine is infinite. 0 miles divided by 0 gallons. Division by 0 equals infinity.

 

I'm in my second week with PC, BAmufflers 8" should be here Fri. 4-10-2020.

 

About 3 weeks per gallon currently

 

Um, it is undefined. Since 0 is nothing, nothing divided by nothing cannot be defined as it is.... um..... nothing!

 

New BAM 8 + read window down = 9 mpg

Ask me how I know

 

I was wondering if I was the only nerd thinking this. LOL

 

OK, I'll take that. My gas mileage is nothing. Still not taking anything from my pocket. I have to go to couple of places for work tomorrow, so it will probably go back to 15 mpg.

 

11.1 coming back from town just now. Went by a sheriff’s deputy going 78 in a 55. He waved hello.

 

NY to LA record broken

 

Cannonball

 

I figure mine is about two weeks to the gallon........

 

ask siri what zero divided by zero is...

 

Oh this hurts... took delivery of my truck at the end of Feb. Still on the second tank of gas. It sure does look nice in the drive way though. sometimes I go sit in it just to listen to the satellite radio.

 

I've been trying to drain my tank so I can go get some yummy e-free fuel at these low prices. There's only one gas station in my area that has it and it's normally about $0.50/gallon higher than premium. I'm sure it will still be expensive relative to other prices, but very cheap in general.

Unfortunately, all driving is unencumbered these days so even my (limited) city driving has my MPGs higher than normal. I did a 65 mile loop the other day to clear my head and got 17mpg! If I'd driven that route under normal conditions I'd have taken 3+ hrs instead of 1.5 and been stop and go over 80% of the route.

First world problems....

 

One of my favorite movies of all time. Just watched it a few months ago with my teenager and he didn't get it...which makes sense, it's a horrible movie in general.

And I miss Brock Yates' columns in Car and Driver. He was a crusty old fart, but funny as hell.

 

My last fillup was March 18th. We’ve been quarantined all this time and can’t leave the house. Being cleared on Monday so I can finally drove it. Keep in mind this is my daily driver that normally gets plenty of drive time!

 

I average around 11.5 and could never really do better than 12.5 on a tank even if I took it “easy”. The worst was my move from Louisiana to New Jersey; 8.6 average around 1300 miles pulling a 12’ trailer with my life in it.

Edit: I use my truck for work and am what they call “essential” so I haven’t experienced the real gas savings that comes from not driving at all. You guys better start those trucks and let them run in the driveway! That gas is going to be bad by the time you get back on the road. Haha

 

I found gas around me for $1.12 so I had to go ahead and top the tank off.
Not to mention my wife is a nurse so we are getting an extra .50 off per gallon at BP through April.
One of the few perks during this time for healthcare professionals.

 

I kind of forgot about that. My three month trial ended while I was out on Friday.

 

damn Siri. Why you gotta do me like that.
