    Good Morning,
    I have 354 miles on my new 2023 1794. I am averaging 13.8 MPG. How long did it take some of you to get what the sticker said. I'd be happy with 17 mpg. Suggestions?

    It has been my experience that you have to alter either the numerator or denominator to get to a 17 mpg avg.

    OK I’m a bit confused so I will take the education. I’ve been looking at the gauge on the truck itself that tells me the average. Do you think that is not accurate?

    Never trust any vehicle's gauge. Do it longhand.

    i have a 2020 running 34” tires. i regularly get 13-14mpg to and from work. at night without traffic, i can get 16-17. just drive late at night so you’re not having to stop and go for traffic and take it easy on the gas pedal.

    you could also buy a smaller car for better mpg. i bought a few cars so i don’t always have to drive my truck.

    I don’t bother with mileage, I made my bed, I’ll sleep in it.
    I’m just another troll. Gotta pay the toll
