    Yes, the display can be changed. I don't remember well enough to explain it either. I just know it's burried deep in the options.

    Good point. But that 82 gallons could be accurate for the mileage showing on his dash if the truck was running bobtail after being sold, or something.

    I'm not sure but I think the 82 gal that's from the 765 miles used

    I was thinking about it, and I bet that 82 gal was from the 765mi that is shown on the display.

    What do you guys think?

    I think so ..
    Otherwise 82 gal used comes from what !!!!
    %95 from the 765mi
    So the question is 272k should be the ECM real mileage . not 765 ?

    Cummins ISX here. I had ECM replaced lately to a used one. The mileage on the odometer is different (accurate) from the installed used ECM. The tech wrote on the ECM case the actual truck mileage, but its original - previous truck's mileage was not changed. Off 400K miles or so.
