i drive way more than you do, then again i get ~30mpg...

40 miles each way to work 5 days a week = 400 miles
times 4 weeks = 1600
not to mention i usually do ~150 miles on the weekend... 150 x 4 = 600
1600 + 600 = 2200 miles a month-ish. probably more.

2200 / 11 gallons = 200 gallons. a rough estimate.
