Essentially the same as mine but he doesn't have the Edge. Going up the steep grades in the Ozarks I was pulling away on him. I didn't notice any big mileage improvement, maybe a half gallon, but I did not see a drop either. I have put on larger wheels and tires since making the trip last year. So it may have helped my mileage from dropping with the larger set up I have now? It was also handy to be able to watch the transmission temps and other stuff i wanted to keep an eye on.

Sounds as if it helped. Yes, bigger tires and wheels really eat into the mpg, so it may have helped more than you realize. I really keep an eye on my temps, could not do without my display.
