Are you saying that your car's speedo read 67 when the GPS indicated 70, or did the speedo read 70, (cruise set at 70) and the GPS indicated 67? The later is what most of us have experienced, I believe, and would indicate that your car's speedo is reading higher than actual speed.

Your odometer test shows virtually the same as mine, 1.5% low.
