Speedometer

Currently when I get in my car and start it, the trip odometer and the odometer come up in my display and I always have to hit the up arrow twice to get it to the speedometer.

Is there any way to make it to where the speedometer comes up automatically when the car is started. Its just kind of annoying to have to hit the up arrow twice every time I get in the car.

I've asked this question before and everyones answer was no. I agree, it is annoying. But wait! Last time I took my car in for service they gave me a 2010 C-Class and that defaulted to wherever you left it set, I was amazed! I wonder if there is a software update or if you can have the settings changed in STAR. Anyone know?
