I used to care about my mpg. Now I don't.
It's just not worth worrying about.

Would a full tank not work out about the same weight as an extra passenger?

Only reason I been checking mpg is that this is my first diesel and I wanted to see just how good it was. Now I know, I'm gonna drive it normally and yes I probably wont fill her right up anymore. Like I said brim to brim fill ups were the only way to accurately determine mpg. Obviously there are people here who don't care about how much it costs to fuel their cars, fair enough but with frequently rising fuel costs and the VAT rise about to hit us I was curious.
