What is your average speed per hour for life?

I just added the DIC to my truck.

I learned my engine has run for 233 hours. My odometer reads 4241. Using the equation of miles/engine hours, I get an average speed for the life of the truck of 18.20 miles per engine hour.

The common standard is the higher the number, the better (i.e. highway miles are easier on the engine/drivetrain.

Since my truck is mainly a snowplow and boat launching truck, it makes sense as there is a lot of idling and low speed operation.

What do your numbers look like?

On mine you have to have the truck turned off then press and hold the odometer rest button for 4 seconds. It will show the hours for 30 seconds then turn off.

That app or any other app won't help with lifetime mpg numbers if you bought the truck used or haven't been using it since you bought it new. ;)

I am at 32MPH. It's dropping, though. I now only drive about 4 miles to work, and it's all city driving.
