3 massive 1500 meter climbs, trying to maintain 130kmph, after my 488 gear/locker upgrade. At least I think that's not bad MPG?
 
You did an average speed of 91MPH? You were flying!
 
My speedo is out 10% right now, but still, I'm impressed. Big 33" Toyo MT and ARB bumper and winch on the front. Our freeway mountain speed limits are 80 mph.

Time to get a yellow box. Takes about 15-30 min to install and your speedo will be correct.
 
I've been having trouble getting my newly acquired yellowbox to program. I'm sure its operator error but I'm off by 22 mph when the speedo shows 50. I've gotten an email to the company for some help and we're working on it but I hadn't anticipated that it would be as difficult as it has been for me.
 
If you don't set it up correctly the first time it can be a PITA. However, they are really good about helping out their customers. Just tell them how far you are off and they will instruct you on what you need to do to get it dialed in.
 
Not to burst your bubble but if your speedo is 10% off you odometer is also, so really you got about 10.2.
Fwiw I have 4.88 and 33s and I get about 14-16 freeway and about 11-13 around town. But around here I rarely get over 70mph.
