Hello all, New member here. Bought a new Titan on new years eve ($600 under invoice). I've read several post about gas mileage...Anyone know of an add-on gas mileage sensor that would display current gas mileage. I've seen these "trip computers" installed on many different vehicles. I'd like to install an aftermarket one which would make checking gas mileage too easy. OK, I'm just lazy and love gadgets!

I'm assuming that you don't have the Navigation system beacuse with that you get the "gadgets" you mentioned. It has a real-time live gas mileage meter and a display that tells you how many miles you have left with the current tank of gas. Also plenty of other cool features. I would seriously be leary of aftermarket add-ons like that. If I were you, I would check with the dealer about the possibilities of getting a Nissan Navigation system installed.

For $3.99 I bought a pocket calculator. When I fill up, a few simple keystrokes and I know exactly what my mileage on my last tank of gas was.

Oh, yeah. And it's portable. I don't have to buy a different one for each vehicle.

LMAO...I've been waiting for that replay. Anyhowz, I've decided not to worry about the mileage and just enjoy the truck. Besides, I can't keep my foot out of the pedal to make checking gas mileage worth it. Thanks for the suggestions???

I did the math on mine today...... 14.9 MPG. That was driving pretty light-footed though. I did it on purpose to see what the best mpg I could get.
