Andrew.....Hey, man yer right, I guess I did. What I
did was try to remember the fuel consumption and
thought it was 26.5. I just took out my Handspring
Visor and looked it up. The database reads 27.5 mpg
instead of 26.5 mpg; WHOA, better'n I thought. I am
using a database program I found on palmgear.com
called Autobase and it does all the
calculating......all I do is put in the numbers from
the gallons pumped and price and the mileage when I
fill up. Of course from Asheville to Greensboro IS
mostly ALL downhill, but....yep..... (I looked again)
and it reads 27.5 mpg......Cool!.... .........Rodney
