Real Fuel Mileage
« on: May 27, 2015, 09:30:18 pm »
I have not posted anything for a few years. For those of you that are slightly interested here is a picture of real gas mileage going to work this morning in my Ford Fusion Hybrid demo that now has 7,500k.

From that pic I can only guess you were holding up the highway traffic  :rofl2:  What's the mileage anyway?
Give a man a fish, he eats for a day. Teach the man to fish and he wakes you up at 5 in the morning.

Hey, that's a great idea for a thread! Maybe we could call it Real-world fuel consumption? I bet it would be super popular and always near the top of the page!  ;D  ;)

Yes, the picture only loses detail as it's enlarged.  What's the story behind having the Fusion?
And some cretins think I hate cars.

Sorry about that sarcastic Helidriver. I realize now I posted wrong. I was driving from Fergus to Milton just under the 100 and yes the speed limit is mostly 80 except that I also  drove through Acton. The picture actually reads 3.9/100k. Its usually around 4.9 so maybe its getting broken in a bit??? I had to slow down as I got stuck behind a Prius!!!!!
