Yea ive got the 06 hemi with the VDS (variable displacement system) and it doesnt really make much of a difference unless ur driveing 300 miles at like 60mph flat set on cruise the whole time. so if ur gonna buy the hemi for VDS system dont just man up and buy it for the power. suck the gas for the output your get.

well I was getting about 20 on the highway and about 15 in the city, But I just got a new Trailer 8x20 and I am now getting about 9-10 weather I am in the city or on the highway,
Hopefully when I get my Superchips Programmer on Tusday it might help a little.
