Default 15.1 mpg number never moves?

My average for mileage never moves. Since day one its always on 15.1 mpg.

There is no way I've stayed at 15.1 for 24,000 miles. I've only had the truck for 6 months and have done numerous trips to Florida, Alabama, South Carolina.

Any ideas?

Mine said 10 mph for a while before I reset it. You may be surprised at the result. The numbers may go back or will go down. Who knows mine has seen 22.3 at a high and 8 on the lowest. My foot is not very easy to control as I think it has gained some weight since I got my truck.

I always reset my MPG readout before going downhill! Then the MPG readout is really impressive.......

if you havent hit the reset button, that thing is hardly ever going to change. Its averaging over the course of 24,000 miles.
If you want a per tank mpg, hit the reset after you fill up.
