I KNOW comptuer readouts are innaccurate. My wifes truck will say usually around 18mpg come out 16 when you had do it. I ahve not done hand calcualations. The tank was under 1/8th when i put e85 in it last night (closest i can come to putting a FULL tank of e 85 in it. ) Today jsut on the computer still reading the same.

Just telling you what im finding. Hopefully i get the truck tomorrow and dont have time to test e85 theory and check milages.
