I've had my 2011 Durango R/T Hemi for about 3 weeks now and have 2400 miles on it. Mostly highway miles and am getting between 21 and 22 mpg. A far cry better then my 2000 Durango with a 4.7 that only got about 14. I am extremely happy with the new one, but am a little concerned with all the new technology. I hope it proves to be as reliable as my old one.
Question. Does anyone know if the R/T has a different exhaust then the other Durango models? Mine seems to sound more performance minded.

The 5.7 on the Durango does have a new exhaust per the Dodge.com website. Here is the link http://www.dodge.com/en/2011/durango...ty/powertrain/
Some of 5.7L HEMI V8 key features:
- Variable valve timing technology
- New dual exhaust
- 7,400 lb (4x2)

Yes. The R/T (not sure bout Citadel) has an upgraded exhaust. Nice rumble to my ears though Dmills has got me tempted to go custom. I'll wait on that however since its currently the family car
Mileage - Like Double D, I fill up when needed and just know its not a hybrid I've been meaning to calculate it by hand but for what its worth, the EVIC says 14-15 avg.
