Post Second fuel hand calc.

My first hand calc after I got the truck a week ago fell around high 17 low 18 MPG. (Mixed driving).
So I checked tire pressures (from the dealer- one tire was at 45PSI the other three where below 50PSI!!!) Brought them all up to 60 PSI.

Threw some diesel kleen in, 1/4 tank of B2, the rest of the tank was filled at Hess.

Overhead says 19.7 MPG
Hand calc came out to 19.1 MPG

Again mixed driving...1/2 highway, 1/4 in town, 1/4 back roads.
Not bad I guess...? My goal is to break 20 MPG.
