What is a realistic accuracy & precision of typical MPG measurements when
measured by the consumer using the typical method of dividing their
tripmeter miles by the gas-pump gallons during fillup?
Repeatabilty is terrible. Accuracy can be pretty good over multiple
tanks. Can be pretty good even on single tanks IF there is a way to
ensure the tank is always filled to EXACTLY the same point (like a
level in the fill - tube, with the vehicle parked at EXACTLY the same
place for each fill-up). Relying on the auto-shutoff of the pump can
cause variance of several liters per fillup.
