Do the mpg check using a calculator........let us know how it is doing

 

the mpg is never right on the Edge. Sometimes my truck gets more mpg, sometimes less than it says.

 

Where would I go about getting a custom tune?

 

you have to send your edge to PHP and get it modified to be able to load a custom tune.

 

Thanks for posting this as this was exactly I was looking for... I am currently in the process of obtaining one and hoping to have some results for comparison, so again thank-you. Going to be upgrading to 33's myself soon but wanted to start with the Edge Tuner.

 

For custom tunes on an Edge Evo, Techrep is right, you'd have to send it to PHP to be converted to a Gryphon and then they'll load custom tunes for about $30 a tune..

I've yet to fill it up since loading the Edge, but once I compare my hand calcs to what the Edge is spitting out I'll let you know how accurate the gas mileage really is, but the power difference on setting 2, with 33" tires is night and day compared to stock!

 

i run mine on level 3 and i have gotten 21mpg at 60 with 325/65/18. that is what my truck said. and i get around 18mpg while doin 70 or 75. that is on level 3 on the edge evo. i am more then happy with it.

 

You know that the "Edge" isn't calculating mpg, right? It's simply showing what the Ford computer is recording... They guys with the Lariats/King Ranches and the info center have reported the same thing about the mpg being off, it was a "glitch" with the Ford code.

 

I didnt realize thats in the computer on a truck without the mpg display from the factory.

 

Ya, my factory MPG display on the instrument panel of my '06 Lariat is consistently off by 1-1.5 mpg per tank, sometimes high, sometimes low. Not necessarily just the computer, also varies by station/pump you fill up at. The auto shutoff is a little different for every pump. Also temp, pressure altitude, etc at time of each fill up will influence readings because fuel expands and contracts based on all these factors. According to the owner's manual, the vehicle's computer takes these factors into account, but pencil whipping the miles driven vs gallons pumped at next fill-up doesn't. Basically, the only way to really get an accurate read is to keep a running total that, as time passes, gets more and more accurate by minimizing the extremity of the variables (IE stats normal approx of data). Even then, its just an average fuel economy, since almost no one drives only highway or only city miles.
