2012 Speedo Display

Is there a way to eliminate the front end car graphics on the speedometer, from ever displaying? Was test driving one yesterday and it just felt cartoonist to me.

It goes away after a few seconds...it's not that big of a deal. I don't think you can permanently remove it

Really? On my 2011 with color display (since I have a late build model), mine has the hockeys as well on a luxury version! I thought they would have at least changed the hockeys to straight ones for 2012; I thought they did until now

Nope...current vehicle with the straight bar. You know this has to just be a programming thing easily done, or revenge. ...And it too was a luxury model.
