Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided for displaying an accumulated fuel usage to a driver of a rental vehicle, such as a rental truck. The rental vehicle has a fuel usage meter that incudes a digital display for displaying fuel consumption of a rental vehicle to a rental customer. The customer is instructed to reset the accumulated fuel consumption display to zero when the customer takes possession of the vehicle and is instructed to read the accumulated fuel consumption display before returning the vehicle to determine an amount of fuel consumed during the rental of the vehicle. The meter retains the accumulated fuel consumption when the engine is turned off, when the meter is uncoupled from the data bus of the vehicle, and when vehicle power is disconnected from meter.
