I KNOW comptuer readouts are innaccurate. My wifes truck will say usually around 18mpg come out 16 when you had do it. I ahve not done hand calcualations. The tank was under 1/8th when i put e85 in it last night (closest i can come to putting a FULL tank of e 85 in it. ) Today jsut on the computer still reading the same. I dont know didnt reset the trip or remember the milage so i cannot hand calculate it but lets say on straight gas computer says 24 actually get 21.....you would think w/e 85 if i was gonna actually get say 18 the computer would read something like 21 or even 22 ..somethign lower . I do realize computers are in accurate butcompared to ahnd calcs but woudl think there somewheat clsoe and reasint he same. I don tknow, not trying to start an arugment. Just telling you what im finding. Hopefully i get the truck tomorrow and dont have time to test e85 theory and check milages.
