34.36 MPG

436.5 mi, 12.703 gal @ $3.40 = 34.36 MPG

56,080 total miles. I've been filling up at Chevron since I got the Escape about 6 weeks ago, so I figured I'd keep that going. This time I saved the receipt and all the details. By now the computer is showing 35.8 average MPG, so it's getting closer.

One of my goals with the hybrid was to get over 500 "miles to empty" showing on the dashboard display. Surprisingly, I got this on my second fill up; this time it showed 519 miles to empty. I didn't expect it would be so easy. I guess the real goal will be to actually drive 500 miles on one tank...
