I filled my tank on my Econoline today. I was surprised to note that the Ultra gauge said 19.7mpg I went 256 miles and put in 14.7 gallons giving me 17.4mpg. It amounted to 1.7 gallons difference or about 13% off.
I didn't fill at the same station each time but I did reset the mpg counter when I filled both times. Still the number seems more off than I would expect. I will be monitoring.
