MPG calculations
#16
The way you guys are seeing it, if I carry a gallon of fuel in a gerry can for 200miles, I'd have done 200mpg with it. Now surely you can see thats not right!

So whats the difference between it being in a gerry can, or in the cars sealed fuel tank with none getting out?

Sweeny, its not infinite either, it's actually 'nothing'...but expressing that in the form of a number isn't 0 and it isn't infinite, and it certainly isn.t 999mpg.

Do 3 miles at 50 mpg, coast down a hill at apparently 999.9 mpg and the average is then 287mpg.....when its not. Its 50mpg as you can't count something you're not using!
