Are rising gasoline prices burning your hard earned cash away? Do you get the feeling that you pump more CO2 into the atmosphere than a coal burning steam engine? Well, stop guessing and start calculating. FuelCalc will help you determine the fuel economy of your vehicle. When you first run FuelCalc, it will prompt you for the mileage (Odometer reading) of your vehicle. Enter the data, and fill the fuel tank of your vehicle. When you leave FuelCalc and reopen it the next time, it will enter the previous odometer reading automatically. All you have to do is fill your fuel tank and enter the appropriate fields, and FuelCalc will calculate your current miles per gallon (or kilometers per Liter), as well as your miles per dollar (or a currency of your choosing).

Track your fuel mileage over time via your iPhone

by Rob Griffiths, Macworld.com

Back when I learned to drive—no, it wasn’t in the Model T—one of the things my father instilled in me was the need to track my vehicle’s gas mileage. Such information would alert me to problems before they became major issues, or so I remember hearing. For some reason, that particular lesson has stuck with me over the years, even as cars have evolved with systems that will find trouble spots long before they become obvious in a mileage book. So in every car I’ve owned, I’ve always kept a small notebook and pen. Every time I fill up, I pull out the notebook, and jot down the miles driven, gallons bought, and (usually) the cost per gallon. I then transfer these figures to a spreadsheet and track and calculate my miles per gallon over time. Have I ever actually done anything with this information? Not that I can recall… yet still, I diligently record every fuel purchase.
