Another month, another trip to Raleigh. :) As usual, "A" is my near-lifetime and "B" is the past month. My monthly's slightly up (307, up from 302), though this still pulls my lifetime down a bit.

How do you keep it so low in OR? Most of us, I thought, in Oregon are quite a bit higher.

I'm at 360Wh/mile lifetime for 25,000 miles.
I'm usually very easy on the accelerator - and I tend to drive the speed limit. And it's a 60 on 19".
While driving around the Bay Area I had many trips in the 260s and 270s :)
If I drove in the 360Wh/ml range this time of the year I'd get a ticket every second day (Hwy26 out to Hillsboro is teaming with speed traps lately).
 
Cool MN summer resulted in best month ever at 149 Wh/km or 239 Wh/mi.

I drove from Toronto to Vancouver, via Los Angeles of course (well, Barstow) - over 7000 km (4400 miles), average 180 Wh/km (288 Wh/mile). I was mostly doing the speed limit, air conditioning on the whole time (and very hot through the southwest U.S.). 85 kWh, standard 19" wheels. There were a few side trips, including one to the top of Mount Evans in Colorado. Interestingly, the car was more efficient going to the top of Mount Evans and back down, at of course relatively slow speeds, than it is on flat ground at highway speed. I think Tesla's regenerative braking is really efficient.
