Since I started hypermiling 40,000 miles ago, I've saved $1700 compared to getting EPA combined mpg estimates. That's more than enough to buy a cartload of starter motors . I calculated that idling at a 2 minute stoplight can drop a ten mile 30 mpg trip average down to 28.5 mpg.

Yes, the UG can display instantaneous GPH, average GPH - general, and average GPH - trip.
