For me, since my car is strictly a luxury/recreational tool, I am in full control of my fuel costs. If I so choose I can go months without driving it (which isn't all that good for any car but it's an option) Also, my car gets 35-40 mpg on the highway depending on wind direction. 45mpg if I draft a line of cars or a semi. From a safe distance of course. I have a dash display that will show current MPG in real time. It's pretty darned accurate.
