I see the DTE number vary on a single tank load as I drive across Wyoming. Some stretches of I-80 will have a headwind yielding 14-16 mpg and then when the headwind dies out the mpg goes up to 21 or so. The DTE then changes to reflect that.

Resetting the both trip meters under Fuel Economy will get it to recalculate as the estimate is gallons in the tank*some average of trip 1 and 2 fuel economy.
Resetting the trip info has nothing to do with it. The DTE is based on the current average. I bought a PB two weeks ago and never reset the trip info from the trucks inception. Just the average. It said 434 DTE when the Sales Associate handed me the keys. Since then I’ve driven 180 miles and used a quarter tank. My DTE is 418 currently. It adjusts based on current average alone.

What engine, what cab, what box size, what trim package, what options, what country ????

Mine is 36 gallons, a Powerboost is somewhat smaller at 30 or 31 gallons, and the base model regular cab is as small as 23 gallons, and a Supercrew as low as 26.
RTFM.

I was just messing around and poking fun at the OP. I knew the size of my fuel tank before I even drove it off the lot. Just saying. :)

oh man, the highest I saw "distance to empty" is 930km on my 22 PB Plat... (normally 800-860 range) how did you squeeze 1200km?
hi when I refuel the first Time it shows 1200 km after that it gives me 960 km
