...that's the problem I'm having with noobies over on the CruzeTalk website--they're all "believing" the numbers from the Drivers Information Center (DIC...how appropriately named?!?!) rather than first verifying those numbers against a "one-click" tank-fillup.
...by the numbers I'm tracking on the wife's Cruze, the ECU is
consistently under calculating the fuel consumption GALS by a rather consistent 5-10%, which means
all the DIC dispaly MPG values are likewise 5-10%
too optimistic.
