Not sure if I'm imagining it or not, but the INSTANT FUEL ECONOMY bar graph sure seems jumpy. As you're driving at a constant throttle, the bar will twitch up and down like crazy.

I don't remember it doing this before, nor so I remember my '12 being this squirrelly.

Would appreciate some confirmation before making a fool of myself at the dealer. ;-)

Here's what it looks like:

My 13 will shift around a few mpg, depends on hills and throttle. Cruise control on flat level ground usually reads within a small margin.

That definitely ain't normal, unless you have Parkinson's.

Mine does the same thing, my 16 king ranch ecoboost did not do that fwiw.

Thanks for the confirmation; I appreciate knowing it's not just an issue with a single truck...mine. ;-)

Definitely not the only one, I've got a few other issues that need to be taken care of first. I partially wondered if it wasn't the vibration I have that was causing the MPG graph to be so erratic
