Trip computer questions

My MDX arrived to the 2600 mile mark and the oil life is 60%. Is this normal?
My driving is roughly 70% highway/30% city.
Also, my fuel B non reseted reading of 18 mpg seems pretty accuarate. However the average speed of 26 mph does not. It almost never changes. I am usually in the highway doing 50 to 60 mph.

I'm not sure about the oil life, but I have the same issue with my average speed never changing. I should probably get out the book and read more about the trip computer because I still haven't mastered it.

There are a number of ways that the average is calculated, and it includes all the time you have your car on not moving. You definitely need to read the manual, and perhaps adjust your key memory settings to reset itself every time you refuel, or every time you turn on the car....I don't remember what other options there are...I'm also not sure you need to reset the av. speed manually.
