First time in to the thread... just over 3000 miles in the fist 31 days of ownership! Also just hit the lifetime average of 308 watts/mi so far. It's been gradually dropping since I bought it.\

3144 miles, 308 watts/mile

I hit just over 3MWh used on the way to work today. Just under 9,000 total miles.

I seem to drive for efficiency on surface streets, and then blow it all cruising 85 on the interstate. My daily commute is sitting around 320 Wh/mi. Weekend trips solo averaging much higher (350-420 Wh/mi), weekend trips with the wife about the same as my commute (320 Wh/mi). Long trips are easy to keep under 300 Wh/mi since the weather has been warm.

Funny, it's the opposite for me. My 60 mile daily commute is 90% highway, where i leadfoot it going up to 85 in the HOV lane when possible and slowing due to traffic conditions. But still averaging a good 75. I find I get around 305 Wh/mi on that. Then on weekends, doing a lot of stop and go on surface streets and between the places we're going, its much higher (esp. in the heat) causing it to rise again.

My commute is only about 65% highway. And I have a nice gentle 70-85 cruising speed, but generally a large amount of other cars.

My weekend driving is normally in less traffic, and while not much faster, a tad bit more varied/aggressive. And there is also a good chance that I am not using AC, but running windows down on the weekends when riding solo. This helps lower the stop and go energy use considerable, but greatly increases it at interstate speeds.

This is my first post. Have had my 85, 19" wheels for 5 weeks. As others have said don't normally drive this many miles but several 200 mile or so trips have added up. Most of the miles are non-interstate, regular NC highways at modest speeds in the 55-60 range plus normal around town errands.
 
What do most of you do with resetting the trip meters? In an ICE, it's customary to reset them with each fill up, but since we all charge every night, I'm curious what the common practice is?

I've never reset Trip B and it tracks all miles since delivery. I reset Trip A every morning before I head out so that I can see my driving stats for each day. The "Since Last Charge" is independent of both these and reset by the car software itself so, that's useful in its own way.
 
5 days out of 7, my 'Since Last Charge' is my daily number. 60 mile daily commute. I charge to 80% right before I leave in the morning, so for about 14 hours a day, after commute home, it sits around 50% SoC. Trip A is my monthly, and Trip B is my lifetime (including the 15.4 it came with from the factory).
 
It's funny that TM didn't include some type of lifetime meter other than the straight odometer required by law - perhaps it's coming in a future update. I would think they would want to collect and advertise that data for the entire MS fleet.
