Cost per mile/KM readout for MPGuino.

Just a suggestion for a possible data readout on the mpguino. No new sensors needed, just the current price entered during set up and the code added.

Just throwing it out there and wishing I knew how to do it.

What say you?

do you really want to go through the setup screens every time you fill up, just to add 3 cents to the $/gal?

That would be up to each MPGuino user. You could just change it on big fluctuations or you could just ignore it and leave it blank.

It would be a powerful tool to educate on what it costs to drive and would help for people tracking expenses as well.
