1970-2000 Linear Trend (Rate = 1.9% per year)
1991-2000 Linear Trend (Rate = 1.4% per year)
1970-2000 Exponential Trend (Rate = 1.5% per year)
1991-2000 Exponential Trend (Rate = 1.3% per year)
Linear trends are tied to a base year (e.g., a 1970-2000 linear trend means that the annual VMT change is X percent of 1970 VMT, not X percent of the preceding year VMT).

Conclusions
• Trends are in pretty reasonable agreement given the cursory level of analysis.
– Factors such as changing fuel efficiency, offroad equipment gasoline sales, through-travel/refueling effects, etc. are likely to explain differences.
• Initial concern over large discrepancy between gasoline sales and HPMS trends appears to be unfounded, but likelihood of negligible future VMT growth also doubtful.
