Do the 2005's have the instant milage feature on the Driver Information Center
like the 2004's have?

Nope! It seems to have been one of the many content deletions as the prices went up!

However, as some have pointed out in other posts, you can reset the average and get the instant numbers for a short while.

that was never really accurate anyways right? Plus if you put on a chip/tuner it throws it off even more. that is..from what I have been reading from owners.

I don't need to know that................:eek:

Just what it got on avg............

If you ask me, I had all that stuff in my 2003 Tahoe............never used it.........

I would have much rather had underhood lights and underdash lights than that instant MPG readout in my 2003.........

Kind of a useless thing if you ask me,

I think the DIC are the same as the eariler models. GM probably tried to simplify the interface. People in the focus groups always complain that its too hard to use. Keep in mind if accessories like underhood lights are not mentioned as a like in a focus group they will be gone on the next model. That is what happened to the retractable underhood light that was standard equipment.

My 96 Yukon had one. Had I known the DMax did not come with underhood the Yukon would have been missing that one before I let it go!

I think the 01-02 models had them. Stopped for the 03's

dmaxallitech sells them on his web site.

Here's the link

Sorry forgot the pull out light was on the 90's models and the 01-02 had the underhood regular light.

But he sells both anyway so take your pick.
