That's how it's designed. It will keep recording in the background and will only reset when you go back to manual and reset it.

IIRC, it actually goes to 100 mpg in 25 mpg increments. I actually like that, because it gives you the real-time fuel consumption. By watching it on my daily commute, I've been able to adjust my driving habits for maximum fuel economy. Unless there is heavy stop-and-go traffic, I am able to average about 19-21 mpg city. That is up from around 17-18 mpg I was getting when I first started driving the RA.

Well idk, no matter what I do my MPG suck.. I just wish we could have it go to 50 and be more detailed. Or replace it with boost or something more interesting. :-)

The stock tune is lousy rich. Get a custom tune and you will have alot better mileage.
