If that is accurate then you got a miracle tuner. Please share this with Ford so they can get over a 50% increase in fuel mileage on all their vehicles.
Not to be skeptical, but I will be anyway, what proof do you have of this miraculous increase? How are you calculating you mileage, how long have you been doing it for and how many tanks have you run with this 50% increase in mileage.

Had rear window pulled out and resealed with butyl sealing rope.The place did it for $45,not to bad.Was leaking on both sides on the top right about where the passengers head would have been.The gasket that was on it was beyond a joke.Looked to be felt on one side with a think rubber film on the other.

Now my truck thinks the key is in all the time. So I can use any of the 3 keys I now have.
The new keys were a bit too thick to fit into the cup that surrounds the key so I made a few adjustments... I cut the cup off the cylinder. Then I sanded it and painted it black. It looks good! (I forgot to take a pic in the truck.)
I had 3 fobs so I took the guts out of two of them and put the guts in each new key. I took the blanks keys to the local hardware store to be cut. Total of $7.
Someone stole the key for my truck out of my car last summer. We've had a problem with a crack head wandering through the neighborhood and checking car doors. It seems to happen every 3 months or so... I figure he gets caught and goes to jail for 3 mo... If he gets caught 3 times then it's 18 mo. in a jail in a different city. With no ride back here once he's out.)
I can't believe I left one of the SAAB's unlocked... I must have pushed a button on the key in my pocket by mistake.
I'm not worried about the truck disappearing because the anti theft won't let the truck start if it scenes two transponder chips.
Picture is before I painted it.
Now its just easier for you truck to be stolen. Because if someone does break in the theft light wont be flashing.

You sir are on some high level crack. It appears you truck has larger than factory tire size. Since you werent using a programmer to fix the speedo your MPG's are off. Now f you corrected the tire size with the tuner your closer to the actual mpg. But your actual mpg's needs to be hand calculated.
