I have NEVER done what you described. Who in the world would add fuel into the tank when car is moving?

I don't own any of this modern car. Not because I cannot afford it just don't want to smog them in CA. I work in software and all this is common sense. Range = avg mpg x fuel ( however simple or complicated it may be for the car to figure it out ). Enough said.
