When mine says 1/2 empty it only holds 2 gallons. The new trucks hold more DEF so adding 2 gallons at 1/2 empty is easy to do. It would also make more sense to have 2 gallon jugs instead of 2 1/2 gallon jugs. Who thinks this stuff up?

I was thinking the same thing when I bought mine yesterday. My Walmart had 1 Gallon and 2.5 Gallon Jugs of Supertech, but only 2.5 Gallon Jugs of Peak Blue. I opted for the Peak blue, but having smaller jugs to pour from could be convenient.

Hot dogs usually sold in packs of 10 and buns in packs of 8. It’s one of life’s mysteries. 😂

After 3000 miles the gauge reads that I've only used 3/8ths of a tank. Does that sound right? Just want to be sure everything is working properly.

if you are not towing then yes. When towing it will increase.

With my towing I have 2200 miles on the truck and I am down to 1K miles left on the def tank.
