Another funny thing from this article:

"A single dial displays both the speedometer and tachometer functions, and we'd prefer a more informative and comprehensive display."


So basically, the guys at Edmund's NEED the gauges to tell them which is MPH and which is RPMs, because they haven't driven enough cars to know what those gauges should look like. And really big numbers for their age-induced failing eyesight.

That is really one of the ugliest stock speedos Ive ever seen. I can foresee xD drivers bitching about this on the many Scion message boards a year from now and many DIY's about replacement of this.

i wonder how the tach is going to display...
will it be a needle? or will it be like a pie chart? or something else?
wish there is a video clip to see that...
