Hey all,

I have a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 regular cab 2WD shortbox with the 3.9 litre engine. I was just wondering roughly what fuel mileage this truck SHOULD be getting, and the best method of calculating roughly how many MPGs it's actually getting. I understand it is an older truck and I'm doing mostly city driving, but it still seems to be getting horrible fuel mileage.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

 

fill it up, right down miles,, drive till need gas, full up, take the number of gallons/ divid by the numbers of miles drove

if the truck in good shape (motor, tires aire up..ect ) my gusse 16city
