We should have a ban on users reporting downhill MPG alone, without the return trip, or for anything less than 100 miles.

I agree, and that is why I went to some pains to clearly state (several times now) the mileage was ONE WAY, and the downhill section was only(measured) 1.5 miles of the 13.3 of my daily commute, the rest rolling and or flat. Did you even read my initial and following posts? They clearly, and reduntantly now, state just that. I wasn't trying to fool you'all, thought I'd made it abundantly clear how, where, and when it happened! My last response on this

I think it should be full tanks only. I could easily plan a 100 trip that gives me much better MPG for show.
