Keep track of how much fuel you have put into the tank and then use the trip odometer to see how many miles you got out of that fill-up. It’s a little hard to be completely accurate, but here’s one method that is pretty close:

1. Go to a gas station, pick a pump.
2. Fill it up until the pump clicks off.
3. Reset the trip odometer to zero.
4. Have some fun
5. Go back to the exact same pump under similar conditions (~ same time of day, same outside temperature), fuel up again until it clicks off
6. Record the amount of fuel and record the miles on the trip odometer.
7. Do the math
