The ScagaugeII with Xgauge is a really nice thing to get. I monitor tranny temps, and that's why I bought it, bit it does a LOT more...

I just installed my scanguage on Friday. It is sad to watch the MPG in my truck. Hopefully it will be retired as my daily driver soon. And then I can do some serious/hardcore modifications to it.

what does your scanguage give you for mpg? chad

It varies from 5-15mpg.. But sometimes when I am coasting downhill on the highway it will show 40-50mpg:wacko::wacko: No way that is possible.



It does help to find the optimum speed to drive to get the best mpg. I was suprised in my truck that if I drive 60mph it gets worse mpg than doing 65-70:huh: I guess it has to do with optimum RPM's.
