1999 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 Quad Sport 6 foot bed.....Until a year ago it was about 14.5mpg. My cat went bad and I am about to replace it. I am going to try and get that class action suit to pay for it since I think it covers all rams 10 years or 120,000. I have about 99k now. Currrently, I am down to 12.5mpgs. I keep up on the maintenance and believe I will get 15mpg's after the cat is replaced!!!! Yeah baby!!!

LAST FILL UP WAS 8.9MPG !!!! with 89 octane (i was pissed)

needless to say i left the gas station at a turtles pace and after about 30 miles im @ 13mpg

I've discovered how the MPG works in my ram, if i drive like a fogie i get better mileage, but the second i step on it, just once is enough, i lose the decent mpg

'04 hemi QC, last tank was 8.2 w/ 89 octane! The last month has been ave. temp of 10F, no engine block heater, long warm up times, lots of 4X4 time, all equates to crappy milage.

Summer time I get 9-11 mpg depending on how and where I drive.
