2018 power wagon and i was getting 15 MPG according to the evic. since i added the 4.5" lift it went down to 14.5 i do a lot of highway driving from the podunk town i live in to the closest major "city" thats about 30 mins away on a highway. cruise speed goes from 45 to 55 to 65 then back down to 55 to 45 to 40 for most of the city driving. if i were to do a lot of stop and go driving i would get about 12-13.

thankfully i have a sams club there and get gas there when i need it since right now its 2.28 per gallon. gas stations in my podunk town are usually .20 cents more. once this trade war is over and i can get my wheels that i ordered back in MAY!!! we will see what 37" tires on 20" wheels will do to the mileage..

Filled mine up the other day. Got 12.85 hand calculated. Not city but not highway either. Rural driving with speed limits about 35-45MPH. Most of my fill-ups have been about 11.9 so this one was better but less in town driving. I think my EVIC read about 13.5 but can't remember. Currently my EVIC is reading about 15 on this tank after about 100 miles. Same type of driving conditions.

I've run the numbers on my PW and it's actually pretty close - EVIC actually reads a little UNDER what I actually get...usually.

Mine goes form full to E then I refuel :anitoof: I get between 9 and 13 mpg it says. Every time I’ve calculated it’s very close. But I rarely look I just needs gas. I don’t even look at gas prices. :banghead:
That's me in a nutshell. I've been driving 2500s for so long I've stopped trying to calculate the gas mileage, or looking at the computer. My truck has always been the family vehicle so it's not uncommon for me to have 2-3 times the mileage my wife's car has on it at any given time.

So far my best mpg was 16.8 but my dash read 18.8, I think its is off by a % not a straight 2mpg across the board. When the truck reads 9.5 mpg towing, I get 9 mpg calculated.

Just filled mine up and got my best tank so far. 13.1. EVIC read 13.3. As long as I drive decently my EVIC is pretty close to actual. My average over about 3000 miles is 12.12 hand calculated.

What app is this??

The name of the app is aCar Fuelly from the Google Play store. Btw, I guess I was a little deep in the bottle when I posted that because my truck is a 6.7.

I use the fuelly website religiously. I have the app but don't really use it. I see people link their fuelly stats in their signature. I'd do it if I knew how.
