Mileage report

We now have about 1500 miles on the Volt—after two weeks! Of course about 1200 of those miles were from our trip to San Diego the first week, which used mostly gasoline out on I-5, getting 37 miles per gallon. Since we returned to Oakland, we have driven 311 miles, including trips to San Francisco, Hercules (about 50 miles round trip), and Santa Rosa (about 150 miles round trip). The Santa Rosa trip was mostly gasoline. So for the whole week we used 3.6 gallons of gas and averaged 84.8 miles per gallon. Not bad, but we're hoping to use zero gasoline for most weeks—the trip to Santa Rosa was not in our normal routine.
