NICE video. I notice that your MPG gauge did not move as you accelerated in speed. I think my MPG gauge is not normal. When i drive it swings back and forth for the 12mpg mark to 50mpg. It never gives me a constant reading like your in the video. Is my MPG gauge malfunctioning?? Can anyone else relate?

When you're driving it'll swing cuz you are constantly stepping on the gas and letting off the gas... in the video he was probably ON the gas the whole time and never let up. so it should be at 12mpg or less the whole time.

I suspect he put "pedal to metal" and kept it there
