Odometer tampering - Page 2

Mr Bojangles · 09-27-2008, 05:57 AM

Present miles......12745/368 hrs =34.66 MPH About what all are saying is average.

Demo miles driven....... = 2292/35 MPH (a guess) = 65.49 Hrs. on engine.
Miles I put on truck, Total..... = 12,745
Miles I put on Cross country TRIP = 7,600/50 MPH = 152.00 Hrs. on engine.
Miles I put on balance of my miles = 2862/35 MPH = 81.77 Hrs. on engine.
Total HRS calculated.......= 299.26 Hrs
Hours shown on computer = 368, I subtracted Calc Hrs. 299.26 and 68.74 HOURS unaccounted for....?

Could I be over analyizing??? Probably. What I believe is that truck has had Too much IDLE time and I will address in future.
I will be keeping track in the future for sure.

06 it's just turning the ket back a slight bit and all gauges seem to go away?

mastercaster · 09-30-2008, 06:25 PM

yeah, that's not altered. that sounds like a good all around average. that would be some city, highway, and idle time.

odometer can definitely be stopped - can't tell ya how though - it's the rules - i also know there is equipment out there, about $1000.00, to change the odometer reading - just my .02

mine has 10700 miles and 319 hrs which averages 33mph. Sounds about right. I put 2400 miles on min in the first two days I owned it.

Turn your key on, dont start, and push the trip button in for 10 seconds. It'll show your hours.

I am not sure, but I think it can be checked on all 3rd gen trucks. I don't remember the procedure either, but I do know it was in the manual.
