I have quit using the handheld calculator. My cars MPG calculator was, (like yours), usually right on the money.
I find it hard to drive mine for maximum MPG, because it is so much fun to
STAND ON IT.
The feel of it pushing you back in the seat, and the sound as it passes 3000 RPM heading to 6500 RPM is hard to resist.
Hmmm... just thinking about what I just wrote... maybe thats why I can never get over 20/21.
