Instant fuel mileage gauge

I noticed that on my 07 it doesn't have the instant fuel mileage feature on the indash computer, it just has the average fuel economy. My friend has an 03 that has it on his. Do they not come with it anymore or is it a package deal? It probably isn't very accurate anyways, I'm just curious.

Thanks

Zane

just reset the DIC while you are driving, it works just like an instant MPG guage that way. Hold the arrow (selector) button on the steering wheel for 5 seconds or so while the Avg MPG is displayed

I just purchased an 07 also and was curious if you found out anything more as to why the 07's don't have the instant economy feature.
