Ok, so I don't drive like hell, not even remotely close to that. I really, really try to feather-foot the truck to save fuel. But no matter what I do or try, it makes little to no difference, towing or not..

pay no mind to the 6/4/12 fill-up being 414mi. it was a fudge-factor of not completely filling up, then adding more later that day to fill it up, so I kinda combined the two and made one entry.

Additionally to the above pictures (taken this morning on the way to work), the Edge is (and was) temporarily removed to test a theory M73M had, from our conversation last weekend..

In my 97 CTD, the SG2 keeps shutting off randomly. I've discussed this (offline) with M73M. Reading on their site today, I read this:

[h=1]My ScanGauge will shutdown while driving in my Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep[/h] Some Dodge/Chrysler/Jeeps are sensitive about how fast/slow information is requested from the ECU. If it’s too fast/slow the ECU will sometimes stop responding to the ScanGauge’s requests for information, so the ScanGauge thinks the vehicle is no longer running and turns off to save power. Setting the update rate on the ScanGauge to Fast or Slow can sometimes solve this issue and allow the ScanGauge to operate normally.

I spoke too soon, mike.. it started turning itself off again. .. wonder if there's a flaky issue with the pcm...? From the Galaxy S3

You might check where the gauge plugs into the OBDI port. On my truck, it was turning itself off as well. There is a sliding clip that holds the plug into a metal bracket. My clip was loose, pushed all the way in and no problems for quite some time! :2cents:
