jeez looks like almost everything on yer dash was a first :-)

That 26.2 is about the best I have ever seen on my cls 63. I hit 26.4 on a 380 mile trip to sac.

Thanks for sharing.

Has anyone ever seen a CLS with a gas pump displayed on their cluster?

Your speedo shows you going 75mph but the digital readout says you're going 57mph. It's backwards.

I take it by your smiley you are joking, but if not - that is an average speed. The digital speedometer is on a different screen and by itself.

The 26.2 is because you most likely just got gas and reset your settings followed by a short drive through town on your way to the HWY and now you are cruising at 75 so your mpg ave is showing really high and your 57mph is your average speed since the start up and your mileage reads the same from left to right and right to left.

How did I do?

You reset the readings and have been coasting downhill for the past 22 miles without touching the gas and with the supercharger cut off

Ahhh, just checked mine and I'm rolling 13.8mpg (yikes). Guess it's those daily digs into the fast lane from the metering lights

I saw it in the 63 one time. I was down to like 10 or 12 miles til empty on the interstate then got off the exit to get gas. As I was stopped it dropped to one then showed the gas pump with the nozzle.

Mine comes on when I still have a few bars left...I didn't think rarfinancial was serious.
