best way to measure gas if getting the recipt of how many gallons you put in and divide by actual miles

i did just that, topped my tank off all the way. then set the trip. after it was a bout half way down i figured it was enough gallons gone to measure a good bit. so i topped it back off by putting 11.5 gallons back in it, then divided by the 117.5 miles i put on the half tank (well what read half tank). thats 10.2 mpg. now 285's are not a huge tire and mine are not overly wide, the 4.10's should have no problem turning them over. i am not trying to compare my truck to a 5.3 or half ton. i know my truck has heavier everything and more displacement. just doesnt match up to most other hd's. i guess well have to play with it quik? higher octane-better mileage?!?!?
