phew!

  • 4½ days driving
  • 5000 km
  • 300l of petrol
  • 4 provinces (ON, QC, NB, PE)
  • 6 states (ME, NE, MA, CT, NY, PA, OH)

In other words, we’re back from our holidays.

a bit better than before

I just ran the fuel numbers for our recent grand trip to Missouri. For 4380km in a Honda Civic DX, we used about 292 litres of fuel. That works out to be 6.7l/100km (or 42.3 / 35.3 UK / US mpg). That’s not quite as good as I’d hoped; I’ll put it down to driving a little fast on very chunky snow tyres.

At least it’s better than last time
