Default fuel gage and speedo question

The other day i got in my box started it up and the fuel gage didn't move (there was about 3/4 of a tank in it) about 30 sec. later it jumped up to fuel level. Now it gets wierd. I left the house and traveled down the highway about 10 miles and noticed my speedo was not working. The fuel gage still read 3/4. When i arrived a work i shut off the box took the key out of the ignition waited 5-10 sec. and started it back up and headed around the parking lot. The fuel gage still worked but the speedo did not. I went in to work worked my 11hr shift started the box and left and to my surprise everything worked as normal. now the question, should i be concerned with this issue as it has not done it again in about four days or should I try to convince the service dept. at toyota that this happened?
thanks.

Dude, take it to the dealer.
If you're under 60k miles, it'll be under warranty anyways.


Just avoid these guys...
