We all know that look. When SWMBO looks at you in utter disappointment and horror.

Today, it was when she saw on my phone that after filling the Silver Bullet this morning, it had managed 13.2mpg over the entire tank.

I don't think she was amused

That is pretty impressive, but I'm sure you've done better (?) in the past ..

That what the trip computer said you avaraged or another method of calculating mpg 

[Sir Tigger KC]

I can't wait for Labour to get back in so we can all be wealthy again!!    And then we can have the 'Who can get the lowest MPG from their Omega' competition!!!

That what the trip computer said you avaraged or another method of calculating mpg 

Brim to brim method, and working it out from the mileage covered.

And there lays the problem....

AHhh  now I get it ....    Mrs TB is being led a merry dance ... you bad, bad, boy ... Why not 'fess up and tell her the truth ?? or do you like winding her up ...    

Still it got me going as well ... so a good wind up, I wonder how many others you caught ...

I tried explaining it. I think she got there in the end. Eventually.

Ah  , Just out of curiosity is that with petrol or LPG, Presuming petrol ?, I rarely fill it up to the top Just chuck the odd £20 or £40 in now and again. I do wonder sometimes though how accurate the trip computer is. Says I've been averaging 27mpg roughly over 450 miles. Probably time to reset it again.

methinks you may have also missed a subtle point ....perhaps a deep read of this may assist ..

[cem_devecioglu]

I'm more interested for the avg+peak speeds

[05omegav6]

I suspect the average speed will be as low as the consumption

I got that look last night when I was on the phone to someone about an aluminium bodied Cobra replica (essentially a Kirkham) and said "Sure, I can absolutely have the money by April" 

She says it was because the cat was trying to eat the sofa, but I think I know otherwise!

Our cats have chewed so much of the old sofa we chopped it up and chucked it last week 

[tunnie]

Think I will get double that on next tank of gas, easy
