PR and fun - volt owners should have a common driving/mileage log

[scottf200]

It seems like it would be outstanding PR if volt owners had a common place they could track their mileage. I'm not necessarily talking about daily but perhaps weekly (with daily as an option or rolled up to a weekly/monthly).

I like Lyle's and would think it should be KISS so that non-owners (rem PR) can see and *quickly* understand it and see the benefit and practicality of owning a Volt. Only think I'd add to Lyle's would be # times charges (else misleading as it can be misinterpreted as a one/day charge geting that many miles.) and outside avg temp that day.

Ideally it would be on this site but there may be some other place on specialized mileage forums, etc.

This chart has a nice feature of $cost per mile for gas.

I like Lyle's spreadsheet but in anticipation to recording the data for my Volt I added to Lyle's spreadsheet 1.)KWHR per charge(recorded during charging), 2.) KWHR/100 miles, and 3.) MPG while in CA mode. From that data I can easily calculate costs, or could add some formulas to do that. I will be charging at 120VAC so can take my Kill-O-Watt meter with me to charge at other locations if I want to be a real purist.

It will be fun to keep our own but imagine what great PR it would be if some potential customers could see some real-world driving results and thus a common place we could log. To that point, for their "view"/skin/layout seems like it should be KISS.

Can people who keeps track of there mileage and cost consider including outside air temperature to see how much it affects mileage or at least get some sort of correlation?

Thanks!

Here's another forum example but does not account for electric vehicles (EREV)...or wait there are 3 at the bottom.

UPDATE from Lyle.

The GM-Volt.com programmer is creating exactly the same database right here. It takes some time so be patient but should roll out shortly.
No need to go anywhere else.
