How do you track your mileage?

I have an app on my Android phone called Fill Up. I use for the Spyder and the cage.

Held off a while to see how this would work out. Gas mileage is like depreciation. It is always a "best estimate." Way to many variables and there can be very good and very bad readings at any time.
I am an accountant so I always play the numbers, but don't get to excited one way or the other.
I am talking 5 spyders and over 130,000 total miles.
The four two cylinder rotax engines--rather GS/RS/or RT, have always performed in the 30 mpg range for me. Best ever was 34. Everything downhill, wind at my back and cruising at a leasurely 45 or so.
The three cylinder 2014 usually performs at about 10 mpg better. Pretty much around 40.
I round off my calculations to the nearest whole mile. 32.2 would be 32. 30.9 would be 31. Those 4 decimal calculations imply more accuracy than actually indicated. Did you squeeze the nozzle a tad more this time?????????
I drive non-aggressive and usually keep it at posted and no more than five over--actually like posted + 3. I did not buy a for its fuel efficiency--just for fun.
Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.
Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)
MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles
IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

I get a pretty consistent 31-32 MPG on our 2010 RT. I'm a pretty casual cruiser, no speed demon. I usually stop between 128-140 miles and fill up with 2 bars left on the gauge. I keep receipts and add up the gallons and miles.
