2002 dodge ram 1500 4x4 360c.i.
wondering what some people are getting for gas mileage im only getting 325 kilometers to about 70 liters. wondering if thats common for the truck or not

 

I get about 11 mpg in town and 13-14 on the highway

 

me to

 

Same here with exact same truck and engine specs, 5.9L and I get about 12 I would guess. Terrible, but not worth trading in and justifying a new car payment.

 

With a few mods and possibly a tune up you may get some better milage. I average about 15 with part in town and part highway but when its all said and done you got to remember your driving a big heavy truck.

 

spending $500-$1000 for a 1-2 mpg increase isnt worth the money, imo

 

11.8 city 18 highway

 

I have a 2003 5.7L. Running 87 octane I was getting 9.5 or 10 MPG in town. Switched to 89 octane and am getting 12.5 in town. Probably better on the highway, but I don't do much of that driving. There is only a $0.10 difference from 87 to 89, so you only have to get about 1 MPG better to pay it off (according to my dad. I didn't actually run the numbers). The truck seems to run a little better too. Less knocking.

 

do you have the 5.9?

 

lol no 47, my overhead read 11.8 the last time a checked it, many months ago
