The economy gauge is functionally useless, unless you are tracking vacuum leaks. BMW had a similar "MPG" gauge that swung all over the gaddamned place and was also useless. Except MB was smart, and took it out of their cars a good 10-12 years before BMW decided to. If you want to save gas, don't go above 3500rpm.
