Re: true car miles per gallon for field engineers
2008 Scion xB, 5sp manual transmission
50% city driving/50% highway driving
30 mpg all the time
regular unleaded fuel: 89 octane

average mph over two months sample: 35mphIf you'd like a serious answer to your request:
1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

Re: true car miles per gallon for field engineers
2002 Jeep Wrangler. 17 mpg. Used to cover about a third of the state of Virginia, so it was almost all hwy miles. Bought it with 30k on the odometer, now have 230k.
Also, now an onsite tech with a 1.5 mile commute so the pain is significantly lessened.“Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'” (Isaac Asimov)Comment
