Welcome to Dodge, nice to meet you
lol, The EVIC will ALWAYS read high, not sure why but every car does it. Mine says 15.8, but I usually read 14.9 with the calculator

Daniel read my reply to Adam. Mine has always been right on or reading lower than what I actually was getting

You said it's been a few tanks since you reset it, it reads everything from the last reset, you won't see big swings, just an average

I get what your saying. When I saw the drop from 16 to 14 it was actually trying to show me that I was only getting 10 without actually being able to show 10. So I should reset it every time I fill up?

When I'm asked what mileage I get, I've always answered with what I see on the EVIC. But, I've always heard it's never right. So, I calculated my mileage the old fashioned way for the last two tanks of fuel. For those last two tanks, the EVIC read from 13.9mpg to 14.4mpg, and my calculations yielded 12.6mpg and 12.8mpg. So, my EVIC is incorrect high.

Well put the exhaust back on and I like my truck better with the exhaust. While I love the noise with it dumped, I love the quietness while cruising with the exhaust on. It's gonna take some getting used to since I can't hear the exhaust at all, so hopefully I don't get any speeding tickets lol

Thinking about it. Next exhaust mod will probably be cat back and cutout, hopefully the cat back won't be as loud as dumped. I would mount the cutout after the y pipe and before the muffler right?
