Geez I can't type this late at night. I guess you got that I meant "can't
justify".
I go by hours on the trip computer. My commute is almost exactly 25 miles
and takes an average of 33 minutes each way so it's pretty simple to figure
out. Typically I can go 10-15.5 hours to a tank, so roughly 27-28mpg average
which is pretty great considering the power the car has and the fact that I
typically use every bit of it a couple times each day merging onto the
different highways. If I get less than 10 hours to a tank I know something
is up. The white car, being stock, still has a functioning trip computer.
But it's typical drives, for the last 6 months anyways, are 80% in town
either to my boys school or the grocery, each less than 2 miles from home. I
use the white one for out of state trips (often due to racing) when I don't
ride in the company truck so on the road I let the GPS track mileage then
check if the trip computer is accurate (it's not too bad).

Well that makes sense, I guess. I just like to keep track of my fuel
economy (or lack of), and the odometer helps with that.
At these mileages, of course, no one cares if the odo works, in general.
