This brings up a a gripe I've had with the OBC. It should include a total trip duration along with miles to empty. I hate that the trip odometer is on the speedo tied in with the clock button. I like to always have the clock present, and when I fill up, I reset all the data on the OBC. I usually forget to reset the trip odometer, therefore not being able to calculate the MPG by hand. I've found the OBC calculation is usually 2-3 mpg low.

Minor complaint I know, but it always seemed to me that that info should be tied directly with the OBC.
