4.6L mpg question?

I went on a lil trip today, when we started the trip computer showed 14.1 avg mpg. 300+ miles later it showed over 17mpg, how often does the trip update it self? It seemed like every 20-30 mins or so? I know these are not real accurate but how close +/- 2-3 mpg?

Most of them in the Lincolns and such are pretty darn accurate. They constantly update. If you reset the avg. mpg, you will see how fast it calculates.

I once drove a car where if you stomped on it, would go down to less than 5 MPG instantly.
