Yes,VERY random.
You must have time on your hands.
Is this a follow up question of a post awhile back,
"whats the first thing you do when you get in your car"?
OUTSIDE TEMP
Summer- speedo
Winter- temp is default on KOER, then once I get going switch n look at tires, then speedo
I use the tach constantly, rarely look at analog speedo (useless) imo.
Why would you need to know the outside temp to adjust the inside temp?
Well, it's because the heat/cold system seems to work "harder" the bigger the temp differential between the current and desired (internal) temp.
If I haven't used the car for a while I can assume (or at least use as guidance) the inside temperature is the same as the outside temp.
Which means I can just put the temperature control dial to a suitable value instead of waiting a minute or two and realising if it's substantially different to my desired temp.
In practice that means if it's particularly cold I can see how cold and turn it up to a higher than normal temperature so it gets to my desired temp quicker. Otherwise I have to fiddle about with it a minute later (while driving, probably)
