Overhead Computer MPG readings?

When im cruising on the highway 70mph 2100rpms, i usually see around 24-25mpg but on the longer trips on straightaways it sometimes settles aroudn 26-28mpg..i cant believe that this truck gets 28mpg...only mods i have are mbrp turbo back, and afe intake...? havent installed the edge/juice yet so i dont see how any false readings or sendings to the computer could happen

Those readings are a guestament. Hand calculations are more accurate.

I see up to 23mpg on my overhead at 75mph on the highway. But with my mods my overhead is 4.5-5mpg high normally.
