PIPs on the MPG gauge
I own a 2008 HCH II. I was wondering what the PIPs on the MPG gauge represent. Does each PIP represent 5 mpg?

Heck if I know, I too would be curious but, again, I am usually too busy driving to count the pips on the SOC little lone those on the instant display.

To guess 5 mpg per pip, I assumed that all pips on is 100mpg and that there are 20 pips on the display. Like justbob30 mentioned, he is too busy driving. I have the same problem. When coasting, I try and count all the pips on the display. I have trouble doing this while driving. It is easy to count the pips above or below the "50" mark in the middle of the display. If I knew what the value of the pip just above the 50 mark, I could easily determine the value of the display. What I am presently assuming is that when all the pips are on up to the 50 mark, the value of the display is 40-45 mpg. And, when one pip is on above the 50 mark, the value of the display is 50-55 mpg. Does this sound correct?
