I must admit, I also wanted the overhead console for the sunglass and
garage door opener holder. The average mpg value seems to be pretty
inaccurate (usually short by at least 1 mpg), and the miles since last
reset is redundant (trip odometer on the dash does the same). I wouldn't
trust the DTE value within less than 50 miles. However, my 6 year old
son loves the compass and ambient temp readout... makes it all
worthwhile I guess. ;}
The only way to determine your true mpg is to calculate it manually
based on odometer reading and fuel quantity at last fill up.
