I just recently drove from NY to AZ, but I haven't had the time to figure out my mileage, guess I need to now.

**Figured out the average and came up with 27 miles per gallon. Seems low considering I went 430 miles between fill ups a couple times.

18-19 mpg pretty much no matter what. MPGs vary wildly because people use on screen displays like morons.

Start with full tank (no top off), Reset trip monitor to zero. At next fill up divide the trip monitor miles by number of gallons on your gas receipt. Do this a few times to get an average.

I calculated my mpg city and I get about 15 mpg...... SO SAD, since I thought I was getting 19 mpg from my digital reading. Any gas saving tips in a manual transmission? I shift from 1st to 2nd at about 3500 rpms, I'm guessing that is too high.
