Title: Is this a new record
Post by: eye30 on June 30, 2008, 18:16:35

Driving today my fuel consumption was showing 167.3 mile per gallon.
(167.3 miles/gallon(UK) = 1.6884694 liters/100 km)

So I took picture as I didn't believe it.

Hehe shouldn't this be in the humour section  :lol:

I once did that by resetting my consumption while slowing from 90 to 60 on the motorway, snapshotting it around 1/2 mile later with 102mpg showing  

If only eh?

Honest it genuine.

Not a spoof or a reset whilst driving.

If it keeps showing this after 400 miles, then I would be interested.  8-)

(I can get mine to show 0.0lt/100km for short distances)
