Why don't we all have MPG readouts?
 

I really want to get a superMID for my '92 civic (obdI), and am wondering why other people that don't have either the superMID or scangauge don't have them already, so here is a poll! please vote even if you post a reply.

I don't see a poll.

I don't/haven't gotten one cause I can't afford it. I'm hoping to get a vacuum gauge soon though. When your in high school with no job, it's pretty hard to get money for something like that.

Good poll idea. Subscribed...

Thanks for adding that last answer to the pole,
I realized that if you know more about a problem then you are better armed to make changes.

Added.

$160 is a lot. If I bump my average mpg from 28mpg to 30mpg it will take a long time to make up the money.

I voted "Can't aford one at this time".

Missing Option: missing a car until graduating from uni.

gonna be getting one soon:). voted cant afford one at this time:(.

Can\'t afford, all of my capitalized economy investments went into my house.

I figured my payback period, 10 MPG for 1 year @125mi/week. Of course, if I drive more, the numbers get smaller :rolleyes:

My $150 scangauge paid for itself in about 7 months. I only commute 11 miles each way, and my car is already fairly efficient. Any more distance, or a thirstier car, or higher gas prices, and the break-even point will be sooner. Highly recommended.

@boxchain - we basically have the same car and a similar commute. You can get great numbers if you\'re willing to push for it.
