But surely everyone goes by the digital readout anyway...
At least major hashmarks are 20mph increments with 10mph sub-increments and 5mph sub-sub-incrrements, unlike some Porsches which have 25mph major increment with 5mph sub-increments, pretty dumb...

Well said...I'm just bitching. I go 80 maybe once a month haha. But I do agree if the digital fails, I appreciate having an analog readout.
