    Just a heads up for you guys who put programmers on your trucks then think you are getting way better mileage do to the digital readout, try hand calculating your mpg's and you will see that your gains arn't near as good as you think.

      I agree. On stock trucks the overhead is sometimes pretty accurate, but once you change the programs on it by adding a powerupgrade it is very rarely accurate any more. I have seen them up to 5 miles off under normal driving conditions. Hand calc is the only way to go and you Must remember to take tire size change into consideration. Easy way to do this is get a GPS Speed for your truck, take the difference from your speedo and get a % off. then multiply the miles traveled by that % and add that number of miles to your miles traveled
