App WAS awesome until it stopped working maybe about a year ago or so and have deleted and reinstalled it several times hoping it would be fixed but still is not so only 1 star anymore but can't find another extension/app that is as good as this one was hopefully they'll fix it some day!
It's acceptible for basic cars. It does not include ANY diesel vehicles. It only includes basic 1500 class trucks, and even then it is lacking many (old hiluxes, etc.). MUST HAVE extension that is missing a LOT of features.
Calculations are only for the starting zip code average fuel cost. It doesn't do the correct math. It though I could drive from Maryland to North Dakota on 30 gallons of gas. LOL! Great little visual app, IF the calculations did 2 things 1. averaged cost of fuel along map route 2. did the correct math!
calculations were off by 200 to 300% for our trips. And it way overestimated the mileage of my old car.
Absolute shite
My vehicle not listed, no option to add a custom one. Fuel prices only for US and Ca, with no option to manually add fuel prices. This could have been great if those options were there, unusable without them. Maybe tell users it's North America only *before* they install...?

Works well. My only suggestion would be to have more than one saved vehicle profile. So you can toggle between two vehicles to determine the costs on a trip.

Works great. Calculates fast and accurate. Not sure if it works on mobile yet...but when this hits Google Play t will be a total game changer! So far it's GREAT on PC

In theory ok but useless to me atm. I've got a diesel car - mazda cx5 - not a single diesel option available to pick ;)

Not sure for all the negative reviews but it did a good job calculating the costs in Canadian currency and has a good database of cars to select.

Useless - calculates the initial start/stop/route, but then does not update as points are added, or route is changed. No motorcycles, nor the ability to add a custom vehicle with your own mpg or km/l. Pretty basic changes that would make this more functional.

This is a poor extension. Google may be a US company but it is a global brand. Why only have the option of common cars in the USA and be unable to use this extension without entering these details? At least give users the option to put in some generic car details suck as engine size petrol/diesel etc to get an estimated cost. Sort it out Google!

There are brands missing, there are diesels missing, at least we could get option to manually add fuel MPG etc... also why does it need to be only imperial?!

USA only. Thanks for not informing me until AFTER i installed it...

Only has limited vehicles to select from, no facility to add other vehicles with know consumption figures, simply useless.

It'd be great to have multiple saved vehicles to choose from
Useless - doesn't list my 18 month old car! Not even anything similar, can't use it - end of story!

It looks good. But the price of fuel does not adjust for countries where the sale is by liters, making the cost of the trip incorrect.

It doesn't work. It asked my vehicle year make and model and after saving it brought up a route in St. Francisco I think but there was no cost bar like in the extension overview.

It works the first time you set it up but close out Maps, open it again and enter a new destination and the extension doesn't work. You have add your car info each time and save it to work again. Obvious oversights in this simple app...

This extension does not have any diesel vehicles in the list. Please add that.

Does not calculate round-trip or multi-stop routes, which effectively renders is useless to me.

Cant select my car, i tried to find a place where i can insert my own values of my car by hand. This option is not included. It would be also a nice feature if you can set a offset to the value so you can make the car configuration more personal. Keep it up maybe i try it again in the future.

Good but I live in Europe and my car is not in the list. It could be good when i can change unit to l/100km an ad some manual input for cost of fuel and for car consuption. Thaks

Only includes North American brand vehicles!

Does not have choices for many vehicles, and does not allow users to input their own fuel economy averages, so it's totally useless unless your make, year and model is one of the choices available. I expected better from Google.
