Turn regular driving into a realistic fuel budget

  1. Start with a normal week

    Include commuting, school runs, shopping and regular weekend travel rather than one unusually low week.

  2. Use your observed economy

    Average several fills where possible so traffic, weather, towing and driving style are represented.

  3. Use a defensible pump price

    A recent local price or a conservative average is safer for budgeting than the single cheapest report.

  4. Leave room for variation

    Road trips, price-cycle peaks and extra kilometres can push the real month above the estimate.
