5 out of 5 stars KIWI - hype or useful tool??   November 10, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

A friend had mentioned he had a KIWI and I thought it would be interesting to try it out on a recent road trip. It's marketed as 'fun' so I wondered if it would be helpful in any way. Much to my surprise I found that I adjusted my driving style quite often to keep my 'score' up which meant I was increasing my MPG. It's extremely easy to install, use, read, etc and is 100% portable from vehicle to vehicle. For those who do a lot of driving it would certainly pay for itself in a relatively short amount of time!
