Gas milage read out

on my new truck there is a little display on the dash telling the current MPG...I have never had this gadget before.

Do you find them to be very accurate?

Unfortunately mine seems accurate. It hasn't budged above 11.7 mpg, unless I take a road trip and reset on the fly. Then I can make it read 33 mpg. That's going down hill from Lake Tahoe at 80+ mph.

Regards!

I have found that mine seems to be 0.5 MPG or so conservitive compared to hand calculation. If it shows 13 I hand calculate 13.5.
