Unfortunately, no, that will not do. People tend to both overestimate and oversimplify everything from MPG calculations to the average speed of a trip. Without a detailed log no numbers can be trusted.

I encourage you to sign up at one of the sites that has easy-to-use MPG logging. One example of this kind of service can be found in my signature.
