Bartamos your points all well taken. I personally do not normally worry about gas mileage or prices with my other vehicles and fill them up when they need gas.
But, because I have never restored an old vehicle to this degree and because he was not running smoothly I wanted a rough guide to see when I was at.
I have been logging my mileage and speed with my Garmin and will make a determination after about 100 miles.
For my own use here in Canada I like the idea of making a little chart for speedo readings - which by the way is all over the map.

On another note, I think that my '51 and my 2 hybrids pretty much cancel themselves out as far as my carbon footprint goes!!
