sound like the fuel pump/sending unit was changed and they put the sending unit in for a larger tank. i had the 'peanut' tank in mine switched it to the big one. if i remember theres three sizes of tanks.
Ive actually been surprised at how accurate my trip computer is as far as my gas mileage. I have compared it to my fillup numbers and usually within .5 of each other. When I bought the truck in January it was showing about 10.5 or so. After doing some work I have got it up to 12.8 but that is without OD or the TC locking up so once I do my trans work I hope to see it go up even more on the highway.

That value changes as you drive.
