I am pretty sure for the first year model 2000 R/T, the sticker says 12/17. The 5.2 2000 model shows 13/18 but I assume the 318 problaby had a lower rear end ratio.

First off never beleive the overhead computer!
Kensai I think your over on the expected mileage. 15 maybe pushing AWD.
I still think your plugs......... and before you write an essay on this it's just my opinion.
Although one way to squeze a lil more out is to take your foot off the throttle......LOL

Right now, I am driving it as if I had an egg behind the pedal to see what my mpg would be with the new map sensor. So far, only a small improvement for me. I guess that tells me my 5.9 is already in perfect running condition?
Now to change the front O2 sensor and I am done with sensors for a while. Is it a PITA to change the O2 sensors? Anyone done it before? what it requires to get access to it? etc? pics? Wanna save me some labor costs if I can do it myself!

Get a O2 socket:
These types of removers allow the wire to come out of the socket without cutting. Soak em whith a good penetrator one day before and let it sit. Use the remover tool or, if you really want cut the wire off and use a regular socket then install the new one snug. Reconnect the harness and clean it out good and put electrical grease inside the harness.
