[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1172393, member: 19880"] I was just describing issues that CAN reduce the accuracy of a GPS measurement of speed or distance. Other than extreme elevation changes or travel at less than 10 mph, I doubt that any of the errors are particularly significant; especially compared to a speedometer that has been documented to be off by 5 to 10%. Personally, I tend to trust the GPS over the speedo; especially if the "real" vs "displayed" value has not been established for the particular speedo in question. [/QUOTE]
