I've got a busted odometer, and sure would like to know how many miles I'm putting on my car, as well as my mileage.

I had seen something with a digital display on wheels of semis and wolfline buses, and I figured they were, if not odometers, counting rotations, so as to be able to calculate mileage.

it tells you miles per trip, miles per tank, miles per day. If you don't ever reset the miles per tank it'll just keep on counting
