Hypermile Challenge (high score: 8.8, life time avg 2.7)

Same here, I wonder though if it is possible to dive down into the numbers on a deeper level and see the usage. Example: I know my phone consumes more battery with wireless Android Auto vs when it is using a wired connection. I wonder if the truck has higher accessory usage with wireless Android Auto, how much of that 10% is stereo, vented seats, lighting, etc.?

If you are really curious, you could measure the current coming out of 12 V battery, turn everything on and off and see how much that current change for each. Of course that requires disconnecting the 12V battery and potentially loosing some of your settings. I am just too lazy and will likely screw something up in the process so I will wait for a youngster with more energy and competence to come up with answers.

Edit: OBDII may provide some of that info.

How's this, 2.8 over 2700+ miles (over 3k miles now) which consists of work commute, short errands, etc... over the past 3 months.

April 21, 2023 (delivery date), thru December 31, 2023. The only thing is.....it is not accurate. I actually added 1,435.66 kW to the batteries to cover this distance. That figures out to a more modest, but still respectable 2.64 miles/kWh.

Here is how the competition is doing:

I didn't get a photo, so I know it doesn't count.

I spent almost a month in LA driving on just the surface streets. Regularly got 8.8 miles/kWh on >40 mile round trips. Keeping below about 35 mph and staying on the long drags with few stops or lights does wonders for efficiency.

I put yours on the subject line of the thread.

Okay, your thread... I wish I'd grabbed a photo.
