2006 Lone Star Edition. 5.7L HEMI. I was driving it in Edmonton (just after I got it) getting 18 MPG in the city and 15 MPG on the highway. Apparently I was getting just 13 MPG in town today. Does mileage have a big impact on fuel economy? I have 1300Km on it so far...

That doesn't look like Edmonton to me...

Wait, maybe that's behind that huge church?

I was averaging 13.9 and I recently had nitrogen put in my tires. I also added a CAI. I am getting 16.4 now. Cheap mods = better MPG for me.

If I keep off the gas... I did 16MPG on the way to work today.
That's in the city, little bit of stop and go traffic...
1500rpm's is the key. :P

2004 1500 4X4 Hemi 25K miles. MPG is getting better. I average 13.5 towing my 5500 lb boat. Get at least 17 MPG on the freeway (70 MPH). City driving 13.5 driving really easy. Hemi seems a bit faster as well. No complaints so far....

2002 Ram 1500 Quad Cab 3.55 4.7l long bed 2wd got 17.5 between city and highway, crazy thing was when i filled it up at the gas station gas gauge said empty but the tank only took 25 gallons when the long beds have 35 gallon tanks but still gettin pretty nice mileage.. a way to get good gas mileage is to keep our foots out of the pedels but thats like asking someone to rise from the dead..
