Gas Prices & Mileage.. my $.02

Filled up last night at Amoco.. (Kansas City)

87oct = 1.199
89oct = 1.299
92oct = 1.399

Also decided to see how accurate my overhead console stuff was. The
overhead said I had gone 287 miles with an avg. of 15.9mpg. I put in 16.6
gallons which comes out to 17.2 mpg. On the way home I checked the
odometer with the mile markers and it was pretty close.. maybe 1/2 of a
tenth off.

A couple of questions come to mind... I have the 22gal fuel tank and the
P235/70R15 tires. Does CC recalibrate the odometer/speedometer as well as
the overhead console to compensate for this???
