Lol, got me good with the thread title. But I must admit that when I first got the tank I didn't know about the regen either and was disappointed for a couple minutes till the mpg's jumped back up.

I can read my oil level but after all, I have a 2011 job 1.
Ignoring the first pull, I get one shot at it when the engine is cold.

I was averaging 15.5 MPG with 1 active regen.
Then I added Nitto Terra 295's and I average 13.5 empty like clockwork (this includes one active regen).
I was expecting a loss of 1 MPG but oh well, this truck is awesome!
