I'm of the opinion that since gas volume changes with temperature, miles per "gallon" is an inaccurate calculation at best. Put it in your truck, now you don't know the actual volume. Fill your truck on a *really* hot day, you might gain 5%, and on a really cold day lose the same. That's going to screw up the truck's run, and it's part of the reason that numbers vary by season. So I'm good with anything that seems within a few percent of "close."
One oddity I've noticed is that I always got at least 16 average on my 5.7L. I would reset one of the computer's two trip odometers every couple of thousand miles, and for any road trips. It was never less. The other odometer I left alone. After 30k miles, the "average" lifetime on the second odometer showed at 13.9 mpg. Clearly some odd error in calculations once you start racking up more miles on the trip calculator. I haven't put enough miles on the 6.4L to get such a big difference, yet.
