Mileage
I just replaced my 2001 7.3 powerstroke with a new 2016 6.7 powerstroke 4X4 I know the 6.7 won't get the mileage that my old truck got but once it's broke in what kind of mileage are you 6.7 owners ...

They display is always slightly different than the hand calculated, some of which can be attributed to a slightly different level of \"how full did I get the tank this time compared to last time.\" There's too many variables involved to get a fuel tank filled to the exact same level each and every time.
The display does not use the fuel level in the tank to calculate mileage, it reports the amount of fuel injected in the miles since last reset. The variations are caused by less than perfect injection systems and odometers. There is always a tolerance, nothing is perfect.
