Average speed display pretty useless
Why would you want to know what your average speed is? Give me my real-time speed instead. That would at least be useful.
Does anybody know whether a digital display of the real-time speed is possible, aside from HUD?

Hello, sorry I can't answer your question as I haven't got a RX (yet).
But since I see that you have the Premium package, I was wondering how the backup camera on rear view mirror is? How useful is it? It seems pretty small... Too bad it only appears on the screen only if you have the navigation package.

As far as size goes, keep in mind that the rearview mirror is closer to your face than the nav screen, so the end result is that the images are about the same size.

Avg speed = 15, you must spend a lot of time idle or at a light. The avg speed is useless because it takes into consideration of your speed when you are parked with the car on as well... so unless you are racing cross country to beat a timed checkpoint and trying to maintain a constant average speed.... its not much use

not very useful, but tose who have nav (or non nav im not sure) do not get time elasped in the car in the Trip Information screen. People complain about this, but avg speed is another way of displaying Trip Time because you can figure it out via avg speed and miles driven
