Anyone else notice this? Can you check and post your results?

Oh well, I ordered one the next day after testing (so, actually I am a "poor guy" once again).

My speedo was off 5 mph due to oversize tires. Smarty lets you adjust the speedo program to the correct size. Simply measure the diameter of the tire and plug it in. Takes all of 1 min. I checked my speed with a GPS and it is dead on now after the first try. Dealer wanted $200 to do this. Amazing.

I mean, if fuel economy is my BIGGEST priority, wouldn't I be willing to sacrifice some pedal response to get it?

Took a fellow co-worker to lunch with me today.
He drives a KIA (Killed In Action). His KIA has a power button for passing and such. We start going down the road, and I am playing with him. Have not touched it yet, just cruising so it seemed like it did when I had the EZ on it. He says,"You paid $650 for this crap?"
First I look at him like
Then I look straight ahead like
Then put the skinny pedal down. truck surges forward and he is like HOLY Haites...
I come up to a red light, and wait, light turns green and i let him feel the real work of the SMARTY.
Screech, spin, surge and then i let out.
I look over, and he is like
.
he says, do they make that for a KIA. I was like NOPE, they don't make good stuff for CRAP like that.
Thanks Bob and Marco.
