So your saying you get around 31 miles on a single gallon? I should try to calculate mine too. How did you get this number?

Mileage indicator on dash will tell you either current MPG or average MPG depending on the setting.
You can calculate yourself but I never found more then a 2% difference between the manual calculation and what the car said.

Just using the car's built in gauge... Many debate how accurate it is but I'd say its pretty spot on when comparing the miles driven to how much I'm putting in the tank...

Park the little red sports car and hop on the tricycle. It'll be safer for all of us.

I wanted to say something along those lines but have vowed to be nicer to the new guys (for a bit at any rate)!

Your talking about the info screen on my dash right. I haven't change it from the odometer display but I'll check It out.

Like Kimsey said there are people that don't trust it but I have always found it accurate enough.

Besides the incorrect use of "your," the op's ability to write complete sentences makes me believe he would fully understand what miles/gallon is.
