they told me from the v6 to the 5.7 liter it was a $995 upgrade.
thats it?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! god damn it! im gonna go back tot he dealer soon and upgrade to the '06 hemi after the airbags get fixed and make sure that it is red because i dont like the other color trucks. sorry, no offense to anybody. its just my personal preference.

averaging 14.5 mpg half half between city and highway.... thats with a 06 1500 slt 4.7 v8 with 20's and only 3000 miles. the best i saw so far was 15.4 and that was on a an hour trip with the cruise control on set at 70. but once i get teh exhaust i know the numbers will go way down because i will love to hear the loudness... haha oh well **** it. small price to pay to have the best.

03 Dodge Ram 1500 Quadcab SLT 4.7 liter engine, 16.5 highway, 12.3 towing, and 15 city, much worse than my F-150 but it also has more power. More power is better!!

2002 1500 Sport 4x4 5.9L 360; SWB; 20" Wheels. Currently 10.4 MPG I tried installing a K&N Filter and it dropped into the high nines per gallon. Hopfully the new Hemi engine will do better

06 1500 Megacab 4x4 Hemi w/ Rancho 4" lift and 37's = 10 mpg driving like I stole it. K&N air box and Airraid throttlebody spacer made it worse.
