Temp Gauge

Anyone here replace their "Top Up" gauge with a temp gauge? Sorry, but that "Top Up" counter just seems silly and the space could be better utilized with a gauge that actually gives you some useful information.

I thought that at first, but now it's a game. I look forward to seeing all six LEDs on and watching the gauge go crazy as it resets! A temperature gauge wouldn't go amiss though. I wish they still did the chrono pack like the earlier models, I definitely would have gone for that...

We're southwest, almost Rhode Island.

Same here I like watching the needle count down.

Rev- did you get connected.? There is a temperature gauge app ( driving excitement) that I've used. It shows on the speedometer screen.
