Check out this link. The gasoline usage is what I call documentation. A little obsessive I'd say.

Yeah, but have you plotted the results on a scatter chart?:bashSurprisingly or not, I started the same type of data for my daily driver since I bought it brand new. I even keep track of which brand of gas was used so I can see if one brand does me better than another, or if certain octanes give better MPG. I'm only missing a handful from my very first couple fill ups. But thus far, I'm over 63K miles and still keeping track. :L
No, but it's all maintained in an excel spreadsheet, so it would only take a literal couple of clicks.Yeah, but have you plotted the results on a scatter chart?:bash
That explains the glazed look in your avatar pic.No, but it's all maintained in an excel spreadsheet, so it would only take a literal couple of clicks.
Yeah, I saw that about the center caps. I did have a couple fly off of my 84 Monte Carlo due to faulty steel clips:L.I was amazed that he lost 12 center caps off his wheels.:eyerole
Also that he replaced 1 broken valve spring at a time 5 times in the first 14 months. Obviously warranty work for the dealer.

I also track every oil change, tire rotation, and any other maintenance and how much it costs me. And to get really nit-picky since it does effect displayed mileage, I figured out the speedo differences between my summer tires (smaller circumference) and my winter tires (OEM spec). Then I calculate the actual mileage versus shown mileage.
