I usually fill mine up to the top of the neck each time. Takes a while, but I like to know exactly what she doing.

You know you can just fill it up to the neck, keep up with the miles and the gallons added and fill it up the neck anytime later...two tanks, three tanks, etc. and it is still accurate. I do this sometimes if I'm in a hurry.

Since you started this thread, I have been asking around and it is not unusual at all for these trucks to get 21 mpg right out of the dealer's lot. Wish mine did!
