I figure the civic I bought from you costs about $0.09/mile to drive not including purchase costs or insurance.
So it saves me around $0.09/mile. To cover a $15k 4 year car payment of lets say $350/month, and extra insurance cost of $75/month. You would have to drive around 4,700 miles/month or 56,400 miles/year to break even, and that assumes that the car does not break down and nothing goes wrong for 4 years and 225,600 miles.

I responded to your thread. I have the same wideband. It's pretty simple. If you leave your car off overnight you wont even need to take the sensor out. Just hit the button on the gauge 3 times, it will say "CAL" hit it again and it will self calibrate.
Here is the manual for the XD-1 (now known as XD-16)
