Absolutely. But doesn't the truck have a factory gauge?
Also, a nit to pick...

Actually, that's what
NISSAN says the truck gets. Whether they follow the spirit/letter of the testing methodology laid out by the EPA is another matter!
Another thing I like to point out when people talk about improving the fuel economy of thirsty vehicles is: the apparently small differences between "trying" and "not trying" can be misleadingly small on the "MPG" scale. When in fact going from 14 to 15.5 MPG represents a significant savings in volume of fuel burned (as opposed to going from, say 44 to 45.5).
Sounds like you're having fun, anyway, and that's always a good goal.
