Question What is your Trip Computer displaying? [Poll]

Hey guys, first real post. I finally figured out how to choose between the different Trip computer modes, and I was curious what you guys have displaying.

I apologize for typing Speed Indicator twice. Just ignore the bottom one. Thanks

Welcome to the community On Nightfall, the DTE is a good one if you're on a long trip too. Try not to look at fuel consumption, you might think about it then.

I've discovered at new from my digital speedo that it's 3kms fast (probably a good thing) checked against 3 different gps radars Bell, V1 & Uniden, sometimes that 3kms can be the different between a ticket and a more expensive ticket. Anyway, anyone else noticed that?

Seriously the search function blows unless you happen to type in the exact thing you're looking for. I've been here a while and yet to have many people tell me to search and honestly searching is tedious and usually quite useless unless its something like a pop charger etc. I wouldn't have thought that this had been asked before. Actually I didn't know this poll had been taken before and I've been here since march

I switch back and forth between speed and avg mpg. Speed mostly because if my radar detector beeps I have my current speed right next to it.

I am so used to glancing only at the digital readout when checking speed, that I instinctively look at mid-dash for that even when driving our tC.

Generally use it for speed indicator, though I cycle through to keep an eye on tire pressure and mpg.
