You do realize that you'll be REQUIRED to run unleaded premium fuel (regular and mid WON'T work) in that Grand Prix...right? And that the L67 (Supercharged 3.8) only sees 28mpg if you drive it with a VERY "light" foot Just making sure you know that before you end up with another vehicle you can't afford to put gas in.

A GT model (non-supercharged) might be a better choice fuel wise. Insurance would be much cheaper on it as well.
Yeah im getting the non supercharged one.... its an 04 with 50,000 miles for 8grand...
I have a friend who had both charged and non-charged... his charged one got better hiway milage according to him.

It's uncommon for it to happen that way.

a 16 yr old boy just lookn for a more fuel effiecient car!!! I love my dodge ram but it has to go...I had good times!!!
Dude I know what you are talking about. I'm 34 and I just got rid of my Ram. I was just a daily driver and never hauled anything with it so I have not really missed it. Truthfully the only thing I miss is sitting in front of the house smoking the tires. That and the rumble from the Flowmaster .

The only reason I can afford to keep my Ram 2500 V10 (had a Ram 1500 small V8 before) is becuase my daily driver is a 1997 Plymouth Breeze. The thing must get about 4-5 times what any of my trucks could ever see. Although the AC is out (working on that one now). But, I will always pass the pump smiling in my old Breeze.

So, I guess you couple the 2 cars mileage....I break even somewhere around 20-25 MPG. You will miss your truck....
