    Maybe a stupid? But over the course of a month since weather has changed I've gone from 12.9 to now 12.2mpg according to gauge yes lifted etc I'm thinking cause of the gas to winter blend? I honestly didn't think there was such a thing I know for diesel there is

    And could be because of winter blend.


    Twice every year in the United States, the fuel supply changes. It's known as the seasonal gasoline transition. This change is the biggest reason for the price hike in summer gasoline. Depending on the time of year, gas stations switch between providing summer-grade fuel and winter-grade fuel.

    The difference between summer- and winter-blend gasoline involves the Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP) of the fuel. ... The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says conventional summer-blend gasoline contains 1.7 percent more energy than winter-blend gas, which is one reason why gas mileage is slightly better in the summer.

    I reset it once in awhile. Last time it was reset was about 200 miles ago. For some reason my truck just runs low on the counter. Haven't counted by hand cause I really don't care anymore.
