    :eek: good thing you found him. There are lots of dogs that go missing on the 4th due to the fireworks.

    They did good until they got tired of the bones... 2 1/2 hours, but now are noticing :mad: poor babies.

    Zoie is like Ollie... they eat the bones down to nubs. Annie is more lady like and leaves most of the bone...

    The torque app is strange for the long trip mpg calculations. I font know how far back it is averaging numbers, but seems to be faily close for a long term reading.

    1st tank today 16 mpg. Fought a nasty head/cross wind

    2nd tank was 20 mpg with the cruise set at 78. Pretty damn good.

    Third tank is better than the last. Haven't filled up uet but at 270 miles at 3/4 tank.

    Did you input all the numbers it uses for calculations?? like vehicle type, size, etc..??

    I think it resets every time you turn it off. I get similar readings

    the "miles per gallon (long term average)" calculates based on the total miles driven while the app is open. you can reset it in the vehicle profile.

    here's the setup I use when I hit the highway
