It's hard to get a correct reading from the miles that you drove. Try going through an entire tank and then check the mileage. I think you will get a better reading!

I've got the dual tanks, and I can get a shade over 400 miles out of 27 gallons if I stick on the highway. That's a rough statement, but my MPG ultimately averages out to 15-16 on the highway. The technical stats for my truck are in my profile. What's yours like?
