    Depending how new his truck is..it may "break in" more and get better MPG. 277 sounds about right for me though.

    It estimates based on previous driving history. 277 does sound low but certainly possible if he drives aggressively.

    My 2018 tacoma started around 340 miles a tank, and driving 90mph trough Montana and 85mph in north Dakota mine dropped to 275 miles a tank average. I also noticed the 340 miles was very optimistic estimate and would drop a lot faster than miles I was actually going
