I can never decide what gauge between the speedo and tach to view. What do you usually select? Air-fuel, vacuum, trip information, other?
Thanks

Usually have mine just on the trip info. I'm basic like that. :shrug:

Boost gauge. I wish it changed color with the main gauges though, the bright white is really distracting at night.

I wish we could "favorite" or 4 or so most desired views so we could just up/down between them.

As it stands I usually just have the quadrant up.

I keep mine on tire pressure most of the time. When it's cold out I can at least tell when my tires are somewhat at operating temps because the PSI will increase around 3-4 psi because the tires have warmed up.

Can you set it to do that all the time?

It will stay on that screen. It's the screen that shows all 4 tires and tells you what PSI each one is at. It would have been cool if PP came with heat sensors like the 1LE.

I start off with oil temp too. When temps are up, it gives me an idea when I can get on the fast pedal.

After temps are up, I switch over to tire pressure or fuel/trip...depending on the drive.

Trip mostly, if bored I'll toggle through everything but always end up on trip.

I leave mine usually on the near useless MPG gauge. Why I can't just have a real-time MPG count in either digital number or a gauge (similar to what BMWs have, only on screen) is beyond me. This fill up a jar of green liquid thing is stupid to me, but... that's what I use.

On track I have tire pressure up all the time. Good to know if one of them is failing on me before it fails, although it'd probably end up being a blow out.

Same. It's really handy for this, especially this time of the year where I live.

I personally think it's silly to have multiple MPG settings in a Mustang. My WRX had like 3 pages of different types of views you could set on the MFD for MPG, so stupid LOL.

The only thing I wish we had was a goddamn digital MPH...:lol:

I keep it on Trip 1, but would like digital MPH, or actually nothing if a choice.

When I first bought it I thought I'd keep it on the Accelerometer, but after 30 minutes I remembered I lived in FL where everything is flat and straight so I barely ever saw the little red dot move. Since then, I've always kept it on the trip computer.

Side note on the Accelerometer: I love the idea of it, but it's such a gimmick. Even if you are pulling any kind of notable G-force, especially laterally, your eyes should probably be on the road - not looking down at your dash to see how much the little red dot is moving haha. If anything, it's just useful to see what your highest recorded G's have been. Somehow I've gotten up to 1.39 Lat. G, which is pretty satisfying.
