Your worst first five minutes?

Well, yea, but the car was covered in ice so I spent at least 10 minutes sitting there defrosting...

Oh, yours isn't bad at all -- I generally do much worse on my first five minutes because I always have to wait at several lights. Sometimes, it hardly registers a bar at all! It usually starts off around 50% of the 25mpg marker.

 

I would consider that an excellent first 5 minutes. The best I ever do is 25mpg on the first bar and it's usually worse.

+1

My first five minutes I may only actually travel a quarter of a mile, creeping out of the park and ride lot and creeping to the first stop light (which is always backed up in the evening).

 

I would LOVE for that to be my typical first five minutes. Even now with good weather, it's just a shade under 25 MPG. In the winter it hovered around 15 MPG (and often the second bar was just under 25 MPG, too).

 

That's typical for me...when it's warmer, I might do a little better than that, but not usually. I wouldn't complain if I were you!

Looks about right to me, for the first 5min. <_<
