smarty mpg. #9 or#1
ive had my smarty for over4 months and ive tried every setting for short periods,mostly using #8 with the comp on 3/5.ive recently started a out of town job and i travel close to 150 miles perday,so of course i put it on fuel saver and no comp,mpgs seemed pretty decent,22-24mpg.then on the weekend i would put it on #8 with the comp to play,well last weekend i decided to try #9 and no comp for the weekend,then i never bothered to change it to fuelsaver for the weeks drive,well i figured my mpgs to be over 26mpg on #9,i thought #1 was fuel mode.not that im complaining,any one else got better mpgs not being on fuel mode?

My best milage was on sw7. Hand calculated 20 on some easy around town driving and highway....not terribly fast (under 75). Wish I'd get what my overhead console says....... 
.....I think it says 36 mph or so.....

BB - What's the point of using a fueling box if Smarty is set for mileage? Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose?

Oh, BTW, I can't do fuel saver anymore. Too many D-max's and P-stroke's show up when I'm on that. Last time I checked that setting out, my truck was a little piggish. I'm too spoiled on the higher settings.....
