    Are you actually putting 21 gallons in the tank? Mine has never held over 18 even with the needle below E

    I've never focused on how much fuel I put in when I fill it up but according to Google, the 2008 V6 came with a 21 gallon tank

    We already talked about this a while ago, get a little code reader from your buddy and lets look at the fuel trims

    I'll write everything down next time I fuel up. I get money for one full tank of every 1.5 weeks or so

    But you have to see how much fuel you actually used to get an accurate calculation of MPG. Divide miles travelled by gallons used. Use the number of gallons you put in instead of just going off the tank size

    I'm going to have it scanned soon, the owner of the black DCLB that I posted yesterday works at Freightliner and they have some highly advanced computers, he agreed to check mine out

    You can also use an app like Fuelly. It keeps track of MPG and fuel cost over time. I input all my fill ups. It won’t calculate for the bigger tire size but it will be close

    Probably doesn't have any codes or you'd have a CEL

    Need to look at trims while driving around

    Ok so let's set this straight. In the event that I am getting 7 MPG with the accurate calculations, and nothing pops up on the computer, what could be the worst case scenario with my truck?
