Gas milage calculations
I know the actual MPG varies from the onboard computer verses manual calcs. I just wounder if anyone has compared there odometer to mile posts to see how accurate it is...JOE

Re: Gas milage calculations
On one long trip, my odometer seemed to be registering low when compared to highway mileposts. I'm not sure how much variation is considered "normal" but I think mine was more than 5% off which seemed quite a bit to me.

Check out a prior post "Discrepancies between Energy Monitor and actual MPG ". I typically see that the Energy Monitor reports FE roughly 5% higher than the manual calculations...
