2018 3500 HO, SRW, limited, mega. I've owned my truck for 1.5 yrs. Installed the following items, few Banks products-air intake w/ filter, intake horn deleting grid heater, banks inter-cooler kit, Calibrated Power Tunes, 52 gallon fuel tank, Amsoil by-pass filter and bed cap. Full oem emissions intact!
This past weekend was my first long trip with the truck only not pulling my RV. 4 passenger, full fuel tank and lots of luggage. When I'm not towing I run on the race tune or setting 4.
Round trip from NJ to Pittsburg PA, 659 miles round trip. 1st leg we drove straight through no stops. 2nd leg coming home only stopped once for food. 95% of the trip was all highway with cruise control on 75 mph. My dash as shown in pic says I averaged 22.7 mpg. Yes I know this dash mpg can't be trusted but it's the only numbers I use.. so keeping it apples to apples. My question is, what are other seeing on the highway without stops. This seems too high to me. Is it possible the tune program falsely changes mpg on the dash? thoughts? thanks
