How many miles are on your truck? I'd let it break in with about 5k and re-evaluate your mileage. Some people on here seem to start out from their first mile on their truck with decent mileage. My story is a little different though. I have a Dec built truck from St. Louis and do have the MDS light. My initial mileage was less than desirable. I was getting 10 avg city and 15 avg highway. I even took it in to have the dealer look at it. They didn't find any fault codes. I knew to expect lower mileage for initial break in, but I still thought this was too low. I figured I would give it a chance to break in more before pursuing it further. Sure enough, I just recently crossed the 5k mark on a long road trip. Over time it has been gradually improving. I am now at the averages advertised on the sticker and beyond. Not sure if you may be seeing something similar to me, but if you are low on miles, break it in some more before you panic.

Mine has the light, but it's not really needed. You can feel and hear when it kicks in, even with the stock exhaust.

I do notice that at certain speeds it doesn't have the guts to hold the speed and either starts slowing the truck down or if you compensate with the pedal it goes back to all 8.
