Not saying anything about the guys mileage numbers but when u base it on the DIC what is it averaging? Anybody know?
How close is it to hand calc?
My old truck doesn't have a DIC (96) and when I was checking coming down to FL pulling maybe 5k box trailer all I get is 12 to 13.2
I have checked the odometer and it is right on. This is with a stock 7.3 non intercooled and with the very restrictive down pipe.
It needs help!

The DIC is an average, if you reset it you can watch it go up and down till finally you have enough miles where it stops moving constantly. It has to be taking the average, I dont know if its linked in with the odometer and has meter on a fuel line or its based off of time. Some trucks have your average MPG and some will give you instant or both. Like I said some say they lie, but if ththe DIC says 14 your not getting 10 either.
