Just purchased an UltraGauge. Installation could not be easier. I still need to find a good spot to mount it. For now, it's sitting in the lower instrument cluster. My fuel economy going to work today was 49.3 mpg. I'm so close to my number. I was actually there but work is located on top of a hill and the last couple of miles brought me down. One thing I've already noticed is that coasting on neutral appears to be worse than coast in gear. Engine load is 30% on neutral versus 15% in gear above 35 mph. I've always coasted on neutral and if this uses up more gas.... wow.
