Oh What A Night...

Just got home from a night at Laundry... Not a bad night out actually... A little expensive but a good night out nonetheless...

In my post about my first trip to the pumps... I was of the opinion that fuel economy of at least 20% extra over the previous 9.6 km/l would make me a happy man (and justify the purchase of my new gas miser)... Would you like to know how it turned out??? Well its like this:

Petrol:
Shell Super
Value of gas pumped (G): RM 54.95
Volume of gas in litres (G / 1.92 = L): 28.619 litres
Starting value on the odometer (A): 180.0 km
Ending value on the odometer (B): 613.2 km
Total distance traveled (B - A = C): 433.2 km
KM / L (C / L): 15.14 km/l
Ratio of city driving to highway cruising: 3:2

15.14 km/l is essentially a 57.71% increase over 9.6 km/l... Not bad... not bad at all... Looks like it was a good purchase... Don't you agree???
