That's exactly how I use to figure out my milage too. I figure the computer is doing a better job. I'll get low to mid 12's too if I step on it in the streets. I only have 280 miles on this baby so far so I'll check again after it's broken in. I know the Cummins takes about 20,000 miles before showing better fuel economy, atleast according to Dependable Dodge dealership. Anybody know how long the 6.7L Ford takes?
