Default Is there such a thing??

Is there a little gadget out there that you could buy separate for your car that determines your current mpg. A lot of newer cars have this little feature built in but unfortunately mine doesnt.

I don't need any of that fancy stuff. I just need a simple current mpg read out and maybe even like a mpg average.
