Is your P30 Speedometer accurate?

I noticed on my trip last weekend that my speedometer reads a solid 5mph slow at highway speeds, compared to my Garmin GPS.  Has anyone noticed the same?  Was running what I thought was 60 but then noticed the GPS said 65.  For fuel mileage concerns I'd like to keep at 60 or 55.

Mine is off by about 7 MPH. Shows 67 at 60 GPS. That explains my dismal mileage on the first trip. I will slow down for the next trip. Stock tires.
