    As the title says, I was just curious what your info display says your DTE is right when you fill up. Mine is pretty consistent where it's either 416 miles or 377 miles. I've noticed when it's 416, it seems to go down noticeably quicker and when it's 377, seems to stay a little longer at each mile. What are you guys seeing?

    mine is always around 220-250 because I usually fill up at around half a tank. I'm still running stock wheels, tires and suspension/height.

    I only notice mine because that's the screen that has the digital speedo, which I like using.

    My average consumption is in the mid 19's. But I dont think the computer knows whats up due to frequent trailer towing.

    You do know that you can customize that display so that it has somewhat useful information on it, don't you?

    BTW I fill up between 1/4 and 1/2 tank just like I always have.

    Stock AF. My 68 Bronco and 2000 2.5RS get the mods.
    315.

    I misread the question but I'll give the other answer anyway:
    I fill up when I don't have enough gas to make it back to SC for the +/-30 cent cheaper gas. I live in NC, work in SC.

    My display usually starts at ~336 after a full fill up, but I usually get about 360ish before it says I am at 0 miles till empty, and then there's still the 2-3 gallons of reserve fuel.

    Mine usually says between 350-380 but that's a damn lie. My tank average mpg is usually between 15-16 because you know, there's a damn red light every other block, wooo!

    More than half the time, my DTE is less than 0. We have a 21.1gal tank, the refuel light comes on at about 18gal used, and the DTE goes to zero at about 19gal? My average fill up is 18.3gal.

    Mine's typically 315>290 depending on my most recent MPG/ % around town to interstate driving.

    Well, 16mpg isn't anything to write home about. :D

    32gal is a nice size though. If it was on a Taco, it would have to be on the right side or a saddle to help with Taco lean. 200lb of fuel plus tank would be no beuno, but over 650mi of range would be freaking awesome.

    What the hell. Mine says 255 and when it says 0, I usually can put between 18 and 18.75 gallons in.

    345. It's not that accurate on a full tank. Get's more accurate as the tank empties.
