The answer is Yes. When KM is selected for distance and Liters are selected on fuel measurement, the fuel economy will be reported as mentioned. (LHK)
I found this info on page 14 as a note in the user manual.
My best run so far with this tool was 46.63 MPG. 40%city 60%highway. I have raised the tire pressure by 3 or 4 psi. I would like to know what other tricks can be applied for better fuel economy.

From main menu, select options as fallows.
1. MORE
2. SETUP
3. UNITS
From here you can change from MPH to KMH and so forth.

That's so cool! Thanks for the link. Its nice to get the insider view of it. And it sounds like the next one is going to be even better with more read outs! I hope they don't bump the price to high.

The only complaint I have of the ScanGauge II is that when the car is in DFCO mode (search this term if you don't know what it is), the ScanGuage II will not show GPH at zero. Anyone know otherwise?

pavel.. i really wanna believe it ,just to be honest with you..but i did my research in regards to "dfco"..not on a toyota history not even on makers of vvti engine.. where did this come from?. who started it ? and how come scangauge2 doesnt adjust to it when in use...

i found this: it did exist but not the way it was presented..

Deceleration fuel cut-off:
"A device which stops the flow of fuel to the carburetor or injectors when the vehicle rapidly decelerates in the event of a crash thus preventing the possibility of a fire or explosion."

Well, I myself do not have any credible evidence that it does exists....I think the ScanGauge II is buggy, frankly. Not saying it is a bad product....on the contrary it's a great product, but it does have it's strangeness....but to the point of DFCO, I've tried a few tests of my own, as mentioned by BailOut, and I tend to think it does exist...but I could be wrong too...
