Magister/everyone, got an update. Advanced sleep didn't work in the Avenger.
I did plug the OBDuino into my 07 Dodge RAM w/4.7L flex fuel (CAN bus) and it worked! I didn't try to calibrate it (sure looked funny as it was showing figures 2x that of the MPGuino, but that makes sense since the engine is twice as big as the Avenger's).
I need to sit down a while and customize some menus. Moving and then getting a new job kinda put a kink in my plans...

All that said, I really appreciate/enjoy being able to monitor instant mpg, as it keeps me more aware of what my driving style is doing to fuel use...
