    Send the comparison again once you go through a full tank under each scenario and let’s see what the results are. Wonder if it would be that much of a difference still.

    Having owned a PC for about 4 years, I can tell you that those numbers are not correct.

    I try to lay off the gas as much as possible but I mean this was after owning it for about 2 weeks.

    My MPG indicator resets upon each fill up. Your photos appear to show the MPGs right after you’ve filled up so I’m assuming your MPG was reset. I also have a 2021 so this doesn’t sense to me.

    The computer lies anyway so this comparison doesn’t mean much.

    Gotta hand calculate out a few tanks to get real numbers

    +1 It is the only genuinely accurate way to do know precise MPGs, yet doesn't it get old doing that? :^))

    Nah I only do it once in a while unless I’ve made a big change like new tires. For instance I just threw on 295/70s and computer says I’m only getting 10pm but hand calc it’s closer to 12 and probably closer to 13 if you figure the extra diameter of the tires.

    The pedal commander does NOTHING to effect gas mileage, all it does is change the potentiometer settings in the gas pedal drive by wire system.

    How do you get 9mpg? I'm supercharged and ok 35s and I just avg 14mpg on the tank based on hand calculation.

    Wondering, cause I've had my PC on now for about 6 months, used ECO mode quite a bit and my MPG average is no different than before getting the PC. Which in a way is a good thing considering what it can do for the throttle.
