Your RAV4 MPGuino is accurate?
I don't have one in the RAV, only the ZX2. You say the min and max could vary by up to 7%, but what percent of your driving is actually at the ends of that range? The majority of my driving (85-90%) is highway at 55 mph. So the actual influence on the indicated mpg is minimal.
