Just discovered this as I ran out my first tankful last night. 50 miles, 50, 50, 50, then 40? WTF? 40-40-40-30, Ohhhh, WTF?! Is there *any* way to change this? GR86 apparently has 1-mile increments.

Combine that with, instead of an almost continuously decrementing fuel gauge of my old '17 (gotta be at least 64 little needle jumps from F to E), now there are 12 big fat discrete blocks that go out one by one.

So now I have way less precise info on how much fuel I have left and how far I can go before having to fill up.

The old dashboard/infoscreen is WAY better than the new one. It's like it went from 64-bit to 8-bit. Also everything being white is not a great look either.
