You gave me a chance to brag about dodge....
The wifes Magnum gets 17 around town and the worst freeway mileage ive seen was around 22 (SPEEDING across the salt flats), normaly around 27. I pulled a 2200lbs trailer from Sacramento CA to Colorado springs CO and averaged 23! I love my HEMI. I just wish the 6.1's had MDS

2006 1500 QC 4x4 3.92 4.7L 15.2MPG MANUAL CALC..

on trips from San Antonio to Corpus (loaded down with about 500 pounds in the bed) i get anywhere from 18.5 and up to 21.3

Odd seeing all the hemis with worse mpg.........

I think we are all finding that our trucks are not getting the mileage that we would hope for but I still would buy another one in a heart beat.

I can't believe some of the low milage figures I read on this thread! If I'd seen this, I'd never have bought my 05 Quad cab 4x4, Hemi with 3.55 diffs.

I am getting a verified 21.5 on the highway at @ 105 KMH (65 MPH) and 17 or so around town. It's tolerable...

I have an '02 4.7 and I am getting around 13 and I do mostly highway driving. It is a 2WD. I thought I would make out better than I am. This is if I take of from a stop like I am 80 years old, and also if I get on the highway and kick it into cruise @ 55. I don't have a K&N or any other performance extras on it so I will be making some modifications there.
