When using the "five mile" roadside markers, I consistantly see my
(reset) trip meter report 5.1 miles at the 5 mile marker. So that's 51
tenths  when it should be 50 tenths, or a 2% over- reporting to true
distance. This is with the 205X70X15 tires.

My original tach and speedo agree with each other, according to the
numbers in the owners manual. i.e. 73 mph @ 3500 rpm in fourth gear.
