The overhead is usually out by 1 to 5 MPG. I have never come close to the overhead when I hand calculate

If you pop your hood and look to the right of your latch there is normally a sticker that has a # on it along with a dealer # and date. It reflects what the latest download/flash the truck has in it for the ECU. The latest flash ends with the letters AU and the june flash ends with AT.

Is the overhead not correct?
Nah its known to be about 2mpg high. If you actually calculate your mpg you'll find just how much yours is off. This issue isn't new to 6.7's its been there for a while now. My actual figures towing a 32' TT are 10.9....
