God Forbid!
Whatever you do stay away from those ninety eight cent note books.
If you blow the pencil drive or cut the pencil string you'll be totally
lost.
I'd blow off the computer and enjoy the trip.
The PO of my Westy kept several little note pads and documented every
drop of gas he ever purchased.
From his records he got 17 around town and about 20.8 on the highway for
roughly 12 years of ownership.
He was a genuine Rocket Scientist (retired military, employed by Chance
Vaught/ Mc Donnel Douglas/ NASA). Gate passes are still on the van. (out
of date now).
Just trust his records, I do.
