Geez Matt, Somebody put your diaper on backwards that morning? Cool the diatribe Mr V10 overhead computer wizard. FYI- I have a Lariat, WITH the overhead console and use it with discretion at best. I have done tons of full tank comparisons and it is way off to say the least. If I rememebre correctly, the original post was a diesel engine anyway. I have also done fuel tank mods and changed my pick-up and fuel lines to prevent air and i can fill my 29 gal tank to 33 gals now. This allows me to run the tank almost dry before filling up so I can get good readings. I do agree that the OH gives averages and that they may be close at any given time, but you never drive the same for good lengths of time, therefore preventing the "averages" to tell you what total mileage you can get. I might suggest taking a troll ride over to the dieselstop.com and posting your statement there. Seems not too many diesel owners trust the overhead for more than a thermo and compass. Meanwhile, go have a beer and relax Cro Magnon Man. You should also learn to be more polite and stop calling poeple idiots, were just talking about mileage here sweetie pie :-) The Neanderthal
