    Actually, I'd ask how many BTU of energy you consumed in your car.

    Gallons of Gasoline, E10, Diesel etc all have different energy content. A Gallon is not measure of energy consumption.

    Someone could burn less gallons of Diesel Fuel and still use more energy and produce more pollutants than someone burning more Gasoline.

    Since a year ago today, I've burned exactly 350.016 gallons (I keep count on an excel sheet). My Prius has cost me exactly 7.3 cents/mile of commute on average, if you just consider the money I spent on gasoline. :) Yeah my mpg isn't all that great (damn lead foot!)
