Even with the calibrations there may be some error but will probably be minimal.
my average is off mine says 23.2mpg but pump calculation say 25.5 to 26.9mpg...Highway


my best for the 6.0L v8 was 31MPG in the city at a steady 43mph hit almost every single green light (CVT mode runs at 1,050RPM at 42MPH)

it's really hard but you can get it running in lean mode it's very hard to keep it in lean mode slightest hill or bump in the road kicks it out




Best combined was 28.7MPG


I think a new HV ⚡ �� battery will get me to 40MPG+ on this V8...




11 years old yep toast...

I fill up at the same pump everytime from now on i think i was getting scammed at a mobil station they were cheating me upwards of a gallon of gas.. for the first 2-4$ it's "Slow"



If I turn off Hybrid mode it only gets 12.8MPG City



You should swap out for a taller gear ratio like 2.93 or taller tires.....be sure to get the speedo programmed.... this will lower the RPM of the engine.... there for save gas at highway speeds
