9.098 |
3.299 | The last 100 miles or so of the trip from Utah, then Michal commuting back and forth to work and around town. She did not top off the tank when she filled up, so the mileage is a little high. | 44.24 |

3.779 | Highest MPG so far, and most miles driven on a single tank. Driving all around the Woodland Park, CO area, and then on to Moab, UT. Due to a lack of fueling stations for 100 miles, we stretched it all the way to Moab. Elevation peaked at 11,500 feet, but most of the driving was at around 8,000 or so. The elevation dropped steadily on the way to Moab, eventually dropping to 4,000 feet. | 45.90 |

384.7 |
9.33 |
3.859 | I drove about 140 miles of this trip as we did some antiquing. The rest of the trip was Michal commuting with lots of A/C use. I would bet that she overfilled at the last fill-up, leading to the big difference between the past 2 tanks. | 41.23 |

9.211 |
3.989 | Michal driving to work and church, with some around-town commuting. She topped off during the last fill-up, so the numbers are a little bit off.

| 03/15/2012 |
320.5 |
9.944 |
3.899 | Michal commuting back and forth to work and around town. Michal said that she topped off the tank more than usual, so the average will look low. Tires were at 48 psi (sidewall max is 51 psi). Found a bulge in the RF tire. I will drop pressures to 45 psi for the next tank. | 32.23 |

9.415 |
3.399 | My wife drove 100% of the tank. It has been cold and very windy. It has been rainy and/or snowy as well. Michal has admitted that she has been leaving late for work, which means she has probably been driving to work faster than usual. | 31.63 |

| 12/03/2011 |
314.2 |

3.499 | My wife did not fill up when she purchased fuel. The receipt did not tell how much fuel was used to fill the car. All I can do is guess the amount purchased using the mpg reading on the car, which my wife made note of prior to fueling. I am estimating the fill-up amount from the next complete fill-up. | 34.91 |
| 11/28/2011 |

3.599 | Today was the first day in the past 3 1/2 weeks that was not over 90 degrees. My wife drove 100% of the tank, with a lot of A/C use. | 38.98 |
| 08/01/2011 |
349 |
9.342 |
3.639 | It has been above 90 every day for the past 2 weeks. I do not think my wife has turned the A/C off. Almost all driving has been commuting to and from work. | 37.35 |
| 07/24/2011 |
323.9 |
9.074 |
3.639 | It was in the upper 90s most of the week, and actually hit 100 once. Most of the driving was commuting and short trips around town, with nonstop A/C use. | 35.69 |
| 07/17/2011 |
372.1 |
9.242 |
3.679 | Mostly commuting around town, but the last 125 miles was a camping trip. Temps have been in the 90s with high humidity, so a lot of A/C use has been in order. | 40.26 |
| 07/11/2011 |
339.8 |
9.227 |
3.579 | Hot outside. Temps in the high 90s. Lots of A/C use. I only drove about 20 miles out of the tank. | 36.82 |

9.331 |
3.429 | My wife commuting back and forth to work. There was a lot of idling and slow moving due to road work and accidents. | 38.59 |
| 06/14/2011 |
369 |
9.845 |
3.659 | My wife drove 90% of the tank. Temps have been in the 80s to low 90s. I suspect a lot of A/C use. | 37.48 |
| 06/08/2011 |
368.3 |
9.442 |
3.919 | I only drove 60 miles or so of the tank. It has been in the 90s, so I can guess that the A/C has been used quite a bit. | 39.00 |
| 06/01/2011 |
355.3 |
9.159 |
4.149 | My wife commuting around town. Temps have reached 85-90, so I expect that the A/C has been used quite a bit. | 38.79 |
| 05/26/2011 |

8.588 |
3.959 | My wife drove all but 60 miles of the tank. Commuting back and forth to work, with a few trips of <5 miles. | 43.80 |
| 05/18/2011 |
353.1 |
9.856 |
4.059 | Commuting around town. I did not drive the car at all. Tank was topped off a little after it clicked off. | 35.82 |
| 05/10/2011 |
368 |
9.27 |
4.099 | My wife drove 100%. Temps have been as low as 35, and as high as 85. I'm assuming the A/C was used. | 39.69 |
| 04/29/2011 |
340.6 |
9.688 |
4.129 | Commuting back and forth to work. My wife drove 100% of the tank. | 35.15 |
| 04/20/2011 |
349.2 |
9.118 |
3.839 | Highway commuting. Mornings have been cool, but afternoons have been nice. I finally changed the oil after about 9,500 miles. | 38.29 |
| 04/12/2011 |
353.6 |
9.232 |
3.999 | My wife and I were both commuting around town quite a bit. Temps have been mild, with no A/C usage. | 38.30 |
| 04/06/2011 |
370.8 |
8.703 |
3.799 | Lots of driving by both me and my wife. Since my car was wrecked, the Fit has been getting double-duty. It really needs an oil change, too, since it has been over 8,500 miles at this point... | 42.60 |
| 04/03/2011 |
343.2 |
9.757 |
3.859 | Temps cooled down again. Lots of interstate driving at 70+. | 35.17 |

360.8 |
9.221 |
3.579 | For the first part of the week, temps at 50 in the mornings, and as high as 75 in the afternoons. It barely got out of the 30s the last 2 days. I think the gas stations switched back to summer-blend gas, given the increase in mileage in both the Fit and Si. I drove about 50% of this tank. | 39.12 |
| 03/18/2011 |
359 |
8.771 |
3.649 | It was warmer, with temps averaging in the mid 40s in the mornings to upper 50s in the afternoons. It has also been very windy at times. | 40.93 |

| 02/10/2011 |
282.8 |
8.714 |
3.099 | As cold as -5 degrees F. Lots of warm-up time with defroster. Worst ice storm in over 30 years, plus 4 inches of snow to top it off. Driving conditions are rotten, and traffic is a joke. This is the first time the Fit achieved less than its highway rating (38 fill-ups). | 32.45 |
| 02/05/2011 |
277.9 |
8.408 |
3.029 | Terrible conditions. 2 1/2 inches of ice, with 4 inches of snow on top. Driving is slow going, with a lot of defroster work and scraping. | 33.05 |

311.7 |
8.783 |
2.999 | Mostly a road trip, in less than ideal conditions. (cold and snowy with the defroster running about 50% of the time). I topped off the tank at fill-up.

325.8 |
9.223 |

| 11/28/2010 |
315.3 |
9.509 |
2.809 | Cold, with lots of defroster use. My wife drove 90% of the tank. Although this is the worst tank yet with the Fit, it was still over our EPA highway rating, so that each of our first 25 tanks has met or exceeded that mark. | 33.15 |
| 11/21/2010 |
373.9 |
9.714 |
2.779 | Commuting to work and back, with a heavy-hauling trip (approximately 600 pounds of cargo) thrown in. Temperatures are below freezing in the mornings, and the defroster is being used quite a bit. | 38.49 |

| 10/22/2010 |
459.7 |
10.422 |
2.759 | Part of the trip back from Florida, and then around town the rest of the week. I added one gallon of gas to this tank and deducted one gallon from the 10/11 fill-up, since I topped off that tank, and the next several tanks as well. This tank marks the end of the top-offs. | 44.10 |

390.3 |
9.822 |
2.799 | My wife drove the first 215 miles, I drove the rest. I was running late to a meeting 75 miles from home, and drove 80+ part of the way. There was a lot of A/C on this tank. I topped off the tank (it shut off at 9.2 gallons, or about 42 mpg) since I will be leaving in a couple of days on a long road trip. I'd like to make as few stops as possible. This will hurt this tank's mileage a lot, but it will eventually balance out. | 39.73 |
| 10/04/2010 |
368.3 |
10.001 |
2.799 | Commuting to work and back, with my wife driving for all but 70 miles of the tank. There was a big change in the weather. The temperature was 80-90 degrees and dry for the past 2 months. Over the past week, it has been 40-65 most of the time, and has been relatively damp. | 36.82 |
