Default Driving in AUTO mode?
How many drive in AUTO all the time? Mileage expectations better in AUTO?

I'm getting POOR mileage (13.7 to 14.3 as average after 1900 miles).

Absolutely no need for it, put your truck in 2wd. You will get a lot better gas mileage and won't wear out that front end as fast as you will with running it in auto.

Thank you for your response....
I now have 1968 miles driving in AUTO....., should see a couple of miles (maybe) in MPG as well as save wear and tear.
