When I drive my truck to ODU and back it takes me 38 minutes each way, and it's exactly 40 miles round-trip. When my wife drives there, she goes the exact same way. The odometer reads exactly 40 miles, but it takes her about 42 minutes each way.
Here's where my mystery comes in.......
When she goes there and back, it uses nearly half a tank of gas. When I got there and back, I use just under 1/8 of a tank. What gives? How is this possible, and what can I tell her to change about her driving habits to conserve gas?
