039/365:2010 MPG

039/365:2010 MPG

Our car has one of those onboard computers that calculates all kinds of things. One of them is MPG - miles per gallon. It's the one that can change the most and I like to keep an eye on it from time to time. There are too many traffic lights and stop-starts in Belfast for a good mpg but every so often with a full tank and a good run of green lights you can keep it over 50 for a while!

  2. That's awesome. My husbands crew cab truck (BIG truck) actually gets better gas mileage than most cars. One reason, it has a feature on it that causes the vehicle to switche from 8 cylinders to 6 cylinders on the highway...saving gas like crazy!

  3. Well, Wils, Cool FM was only on because I was using my iPhone to take the photo - normally I've got it plugged in for my mp3 bible or sermon podcasts or some great music. Sure what other station in Northern Ireland would we be listening to...?

    Kelly - that sounds like a great idea on the truck. I'm sure it saves some money, which is always a good thing!

  4. I resisted asking last night, but now I need to know ... photographing while driving?? But even that's not as big a sin as listening to COOL FM

  5. Ali, good question! It's obscured here, but if you click on the photo and see it full frame you'll see that the speedometer is at 0mph. I was stopped when I took the photo!

    What's the big deal about Cool FM???
