If you ever looked at the price label on a new car, they cite EPA fuel efficiency in miles per gallon (mpg) that is not always credible.
So, the EPA not long ago revised the official EPA fuel mileage estimates that the car makers were to use on their labels.
And, the EPA created this other website where you can register and track your actual vehicle fuel mileage and compare it not only to the EPA figures, but to data entered by others for the same vehicles.
But, in Central Florida, we also have to use fuel with up to 10% ethanol in it, which reduces fuel mileage even more, and is NOT factored into official EPA figures.
So GO HERE, register, and track your actual fuel mileage to see how much lower your actual mileage is than what the EPA and automakers promised.
