Womps, you're only at 1500 miles. You really need to just enjoy the truck for a few thousand more miles and let it learn how you drive, and use it. Mileage will get better, and the truck should know when to regen on its own. Work it hard, and you will see very few regens messages, they will be passive. Freeway cruise empty a lot, and your going to see more, but I for sure wouldn't worry about it, or bother the dealer until at least 5k miles, then re-evaluate. I have seen mileage stated from owners here, and on the Ford truck enthusiasts site that have varied quite a bit, but most 6.7 trucks average 15-17 overall. Mine gets 19 hwy empty with no wind, 11-12 towing 7k, and I average around 17, but I live in a rural area, don't drive in city traffic much, and it's not my daily driver. I don't worry about regens, I just let em happen when they need to. Good luck.
