    Drove my wife's 2015 trailhawk tonight and noticed the current fuel mileage gauge bouncing up and down like a yo yo on a fairly straight stretch of road. Is there anyway to adjust the sensitivity of the readout? The way it is now it is pretty much useless cause it doesn't stay on one number for more than 2 seconds. Oh the joys of digital and computers.

    Well, you're driving an automatic, so there's constantly stuff going on like shifting through that interminable 9 gear choices, thus the consumption is going to vary wildly. It's a little less frenetic driving the manual transmission, but then you're constantly second guessing where you have it in terms of getting the best mileage. Best thing to do, I've discovered, is just not displaying that screen. Get on with driving. Make the same choices you've always made to get decent mileage and use common sense, and let that gauge entertain itself.
