I most certainly do know how it works. When I reset it this time I noticed it fell from %100 to %99 in under 5 miles, suggesting a non linear rate of change.
Um no, you need to learn a little more math. You cant really learn anything by watching it go from 100% to 99% in 5 miles. As...

Well, this is my wifes's car. She got a job farther away from home, so that is probably why this longer interval showed a better report than the previous interval. Much more highway driving this time. 10min commute vs 30min commute.

When a private party sells the car to another private party, the plates stay on.
Human bodies did not evolve to consume farmed foods. Namely grains/carbs. There are no "essential carbs" only essential amino acids (protiens) and essential fatty acids. Fiber is overated and only helps slow the digestion of carbs and sugar. Best way to stabilize your blood sugar is to...
