I ordered the scangauge yesterday. I wonder the effect it will have on the intuitive FE driving which has taken me from 32.5 to 40.04 over the same 26 mile course I've driven for the last 2 month in a 2007 Aveo. Though I'm happy with the progress. I have a lot of questions that I think the gauge may answer, like most efficient rpm in 5th gear on level. My course is almost traffic free so I have a lot of latitude to chose a speed. I set a goal of 40 mpg and have already reached it so anything the gauge gets me will be gravy, but this is an addicting pastime and I find myself spending a lot of time thinking it over. Current driving times are 5-7 minutes longer the previous, but I find the trip very relaxing and considering I drive about 25,000 miles a year, it will have some cash benefits. Good luck with FE. I plan to check out the Honda CR-V automatic which is the weekend ride.
