In the 40's and 50's we used speed of the wiper blades to determine fuel
efficiency. <grin>  Those days if you wanted to run mobile power you needed
a dynamotor in the trunk. :)

There was an automobile back in the sixties or seventies that had
a  fuel efficiency meter. It was a dual scale meter that read manifold
vacuum and related it to miles per gallon.
