Default Is this normal?

So I've been driving around with my new Edge Cs for 3 days now on setting 1, and I'm averaging about 21.1 mpg. I've got my correct tire and gear size inputted. Is the edge accurate?

My CTS isn't accurate at all. The display on the dash is closer...

Whenever you coast it kicks the value up really high making the average not being correct at all.
