I wonder if people actually know how to divide?

1. set trip meter to zero.
2. fill tank.
3. drive till you need gas again ie, under half tank or to the 1/4 mark.
4. Notice miles driven when you pull up to the gas pump.
5. fill tank again
6. DIVIDE number of miles driven since last fill up
gallons of gas it took to fill up.

7. Theres your gas mileage.

I usually get anywhere from 24-27mpg with my 97ES with 192k miles. When the gauge gets halfway that technically means your at 9 to 10 gallons from full or empty. My odometer gets anywhere from 220-260 at the halfway mark.
