I just keyed in my 100th fill-up at fueleconomy.gov and fuelly.com. I know a lot of people around here have filled their Versas many more times than that, but mine was the first Versa of any year to hit 100 tanks of gas at fuelly.

Anyone else here still contributing their Versa mileage figures at either site?

I have driven about the same number of miles as you, srellim234, just a bit over 28,000. Got my Versa SL, CVT, in February of 07 and have kept track of each fill but haven't counted the fills. You'll note that it's 32.4 mpg.

I report to fueleconomy.gov on a quarterly basis and at the present time am Number 21 on the list. For some reason, probably my lack of technical ability, it shows my last reporting as January of 09. It was actually the first part of August.

Have to admit that my 60/40, highway/stop and go is somewhat subjective as I think it varies quite a lot in my case.

Also, living in the center of ethanol country, almost every gallon of fuel has been 10% ethanol. Usually a dime cheaper and I'm all for that. Visit Seattle once in a while and I think it's usually .20 higher there.

As often as I get gas, I found that it took too long to report every talk at the first site you listed. I haven't heard of the second one. (282 tanks on my first Versa, and only 9, so far, on the second.)

I track everything in one of those little Dohme mileage books used for business auto expenses that you can get from any office supply store for a couple of bucks. It fits perfectly in the console of the Versa. I bring the book into the house and key from the book into the websites when it's convenient; sometimes I'm keying in two or three fillups at one computer sitting.

Fuelly takes more time to key in than fueleconomy.gov but less time than agonizing over the driving habits you have to enter at True Delta.

True Delta is a great site for vehicle reliability and entering repairs.

I bought mine (the second one) on August 13th, too! As of this morning it has 5879 miles, but I was out of the country for a week and couldn't drive it...
