That sounds like 'car clocker's' gizmo. :rofl:

Posted 13 years 5 months ago #24543We use kilometers here but 30 miles away at the US border things change back to MPH.
My wife's PT Cruiser has the ability and it is a handy feature.

Posted 13 years 5 months ago #24574I just took a look at Rimmers site and was
amazed/horrified at the number of speedos listed.
Too bad they didn't have a facility to switch from one
value to another. It would have simplified things.
Schoppi, I don't think i'll worry about a dual scale unit
as I am pretty good at guesstimating KM from MPH.
