Default Re: Is the MPG gauge correct?

The car's ODO is likely calibrated for ONLY medium wear (mid-life) tires, EXACTLY correct "warmed up" tire air pressure and temperature.

Basically too many unknowns for any reasonable level of accuracy.

Easy way to beat a speeding citation based on the trooper's speedo.
