My '05 6.0 trip meter seems to be right on the money most of the time. I put a Superchips programmer on my '00 7.3 X and the mpg jumped way up over 20. I thought the programmer was the miracle machine until I started figuring by hand. On a long trip I will reset it each time I fill up. Never got above 10 mpg pulling my '26 Komfort travel trailer. In town I just leave it alone and it stays in the 12-14 range all the time.

Gents, I'm in the group that resets the "lie-o-meter" every tank full and once I started this practice .. every tank ... the actual mpg and that displayed on the LOM began to converge and are now about .5mpg off ..
