Has anyone evaluated the accuracy of the dash monitor for fuel consumption vs Pump volume and odometer readings. I'm not suggesting that they aren't correct, it's that I don't understand the parameters used by the monitor to make the evaluation. My unit reads numbers much lower that what I'm actually getting, so I stopped looking at it.
BTW, I like the analysis of fuel and weight. Do the same for a Train or a Tug on the Mississippi moving barges (down stream)
New Class 8 trucks are getting so wind slippery, that they are trying to get 80,000 lbs over the road and reach into the 8+ mpg, I understand the low 7's is more common.
