Don't know about you, but I space the hell out standing at the pumps, and just end up paying, driving away forgetting what just happened 20 minutes later LOL!
I keep a running spreadsheet with each fill up, including the price I paid, the grade of gas I put in, and the mileage. I have pretty darn accurate mpg readings and I can tell you to the penny how much I've spent on gas. You can do lots of fun things like figure out how much you spend per MILE - for me it's roughly $.23 per mile... anyway, it's just a nice thing to do and pretty easy. When you get the receipt, just write down the info and when you get home pop it in a spreadsheet. you can also keep track of maintenance items such as when you changed oil, tranny fluid, coolant, etc...
I do the same thing. My fiance makes fun of me for it. I have averaged 13.47 MPG since I bought the truck a little over a year ago. I even graph the MPG and Cost/Gallon.
I have the 34gal tank and in the winter I am about 180mi during the winter and 200mi+ for HALF tank during summer. And this is also mixed highway city,.. about 60/40 split, also included idle time for warm up in the morning.
