What is everyone running most of the time on their displays?

Usually keep mine on the speedometer, with temp, clock, range on top. Have nav directions turned on as well. Occasionally check tires, run the trip computer rarely just to get an idea of how I am driving.

Usually keep the 8.4 on the audio source of choice, unless navigation is being used.

Speed for me too initially. Tires were at 42 when I got home from dealer. I finally took down to 33 all around and have been watching it as I drive. So last week I have had tire pressure as my display. Ps my commute causes fluctuations from 33 to 37. Didn't expect to see that.

I keep it mostly on the fuel consumption screen. Custom across the top is temp, time, and compass (duplication from the 8.4" display, but I don't have to look over)

Common screens to cycle to are trip details and vehicle information (in that order)

Oh, and GPS enabled to EVIC.

The pressure will fluctuate based on road conditions, speed and temperature (which changes due to road friction) unless you are driving a Nissan GT-R with nitrogen instead of air in your tires.

Speedometer.......
The rest is as delivered.
When I figure out the rest I will start fine tuning. There are just so many goodies in this vehicle.

Normally, I have mine set to vehicle information and transmission temp. Then I bounce around checking out various parameters.

Fuel consumption or trip info here.
Top row: Avg economy in the corner, direction in the middle, temp in the other corner


I liked having the speedometer up, but then found myself watching only that... and I start thinking what a waste the analog speedometer is then. So I turned it off. :)

Nitrogen tires

The pressure will fluctuate based on road conditions, speed and temperature (which changes due to road friction) unless you are driving a Nissan GT-R with nitrogen instead of air in your tires.
My dealership made a big fuss explaining that my tires were filled with nitrogen!

If the pressure gets low I need to get them topped up at a dealership. So far, the pressure has been 34-35.

Yeah mine didn't tell me, but I had the tell tale green caps. They fluctuate a bit, not like atmospheric air though. You can still top it off yourself if you dont want to go by the dealer.

About the same for me.

Let's see....

Speedometer( Main )
Temp( Left )
Compass( Right )
Clock( Center - replaces the text "speedometer" - tried MPG's here but I was constantly looking down so I swapped it )

I admit I keep checking the MPG. I have been obsessed with MPG ever since gas went nuts after Katrina. Can't help myself. I get a little surge of excitement every time I look and it has gone up. :smile: I get a little upset when it goes down. :frown: It's like driving past an accident. You don't want to look but can't help yourself.

I have the Nav set to show in the EVIC too. GREAT feature. I too leave the 8.4 on the audio source unless I am using the GPS then it is the map screen.

upper left: outside temp

upper right: ave mpg

center: generally toggle between coolant temp and trans temp, sometimes mpg

uconnect stays on usb music input unless I'm changing seat/wheel heaters
