Be careful of the MPG readings. I've found mine to be off by 1.5 - 2 MPG
by comparing gallons added to the miles on the trip odometer (the speedo
and computer were within 1 mile over about 220 total).

Sure is disheartening to see the real-time drop to 3 MPG with my 318 during
acceleration from a stop, but the feeling of pressing back in the seat
makes it worthwhile!!!
