Tomorrow I'm taking my 04 Quad cab 4x4 ThunderRoad Hemi for it's first real trip. Were going to Bennington Vermont from New Castle Delaware. Somewhere around 800 miles all together. Using 87 oct.We will be back this coming weekend.( Death in the family.) I was going to take my 06 PT Convertible ,but I decidedI wanted something heavier on the NY freeway.

City - 11 - 12.5 depending on how I'm feeling.
Hwy - Was 16 - 17 but improved dramatically to 18.5 and sometimes 20 at 55 - 60mph, after I added a tonneau cover. No BS... Have 16k on truck.
