I'm getting an average of 13.8mpg driving my cutty around. 70 city / 30 highway. I can't keep my foot out of the gas on this car. I love how loud it is.

Its an app called Torque Pro and you need an OBD adapter to use it. Its an awesome app. You can see information from basically every sensor in your vehicle. There is a free version (Torque Lite) but you can't take screenshots from it.
