Default What kind of MPG's

Don't know if this has been done or not:

What kind of mpgs are you guys getting?

Thread is simple, give your miles per gallon, and list any mods you noticed an improvement/loss with.

I'll start: Last time i checked: 10/12-14
Picked up 2 when I put on my cold air (when I keep my foot out of it). Lost 1 when I got 35's . Didnt notice any significant change when I gutted the cat (besides a little low end loss).

Do not take this the wrong way, but this thread topic has been done many times over. If you do a search, you'll find a ton.

All he's going to get is some old dead thread, as I've been told in the past.

I get about 14 in my bonestock Ram, and 9 in my play toy Ram.

My truck does great in the summer. on the highway, if i set the cc to between 70-75 mph's i can average about 17-19 mpgs. In the city i average around 13-14....im not really hard on my truck. rarly do i try to spin tires etc....i do off-road, but only beat on it if i think/ am stuck in something.

But the winter is killing me, im averaging about 8.5 city and 11 highway (but i do like 2% highway driving) but my catalytic converter is getting pretty noisy, i think its about time she gets hollowed.


i do have 4.10 gears, i have a new keg modded intake with hughes, full tune up, lots of new parts etc...so this help me with mpgs
