So I have read several times that folks think our Speedos are purposely off by five to ten miles per hour hence when I make reference to my speed I use the word indicated. Not being up to speed on the mechanics of the device, I had to wonder, if this is true that my speed is set higher then it really is, does the odometer operate the same way :idea: . This could make a huge difference to someone like me who had put on 14k miles since June 22nd. It means that over a period of three or four years, I may have 85k showing on my speedo when I have really only traveled 60K.
Does anybody know for sure and does this concern make sense? :?:
