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.

I want to manually add my own fuel consumption values because my vehicle is not listed.

Canbo, 2019-05-14

calculations were off by 200 to 300% for our trips. And it way overestimated the mileage of my old car.
