RE: Miles per gallon- What are you getting?
I just got an 04 Ram 1500 regular cab, long box 4x2 with the 4.7 V8, 5A, 3.55 rear and 39k miles.
I'm getting about10mpg city, 18 highway and about 12.5 mixed. I'm disapointed. My 86 F150 5.0L AOD 4x4 gets 12 city, 20 highway and 14.5 mixed.... Both driven about the same and on the same routes. Dare I say that it looks like a clapped out 21 year old Ford can beat a new Dodge??? [8D]
To be fair I have a turbo muffler on the ford and the stock exhaust on the dodge, but you'd think they could improve a little in 18 years? It's got 218k miles and gets better gas mileage?
Anyway, I'm in search of mileage. I'm going to check tire pressure, change the exhaust, go synthetic, etc...
