Gasoline Log
Tracking how much you gasoline you use with each fill up will hopefully help you become a better driver. If not a better driver, it may at least encourage your to buy a better car.
Many people find that driving to work, picking up the kids, driving to buy groceries and so forth can be one of the biggest expenses, especially when the vehicle gets a low mileage. This log serves two purposes. It helps you to figure out whether you are truly getting the best miles per gallon possible. And, when it is time to replace the vehicle, hopefully you will buy one with the best mileage possible for your needs. It may also help you to reassess whether a second vehicle is needed.
Gasoline Usage Log
To get the best miles per gallon look to get the price per mile down as far as you can. In the example below, if a car is suppose to get 20 miles per gallon, then you can expect to pay around 14 cents per mile. As you can see the car got 17 cents per mile, which does not meet the cars performance.
