Um, right, that's why I thought it was, well, funny... could be wrong, though. Everything looks like a 1040 form right now.

I think Mazda hid it on purpose... several times I've really gotten on it and asked my wife how fast she thought we were going... she's usually low by at least 20mph. I usually just nod and say good guess... I don't need to get frogged in the arm doing 100 :D

I love the ability to switch the speedometer over to KPH, it just makes me feel so much better when I am in stop and go traffic. :D

What? How...is that what that other little button is for (like the trip button)? I saw it and I've been meaning to press it but I kept forgetting it.

Cool...I got to try that.
