04 QC HEMI Ram, 2WD, 24k miles, K&N intake, last tank was 14.7 mpg. Mostly daily commute to work.

Planning on getting a Superchip Programmer, has an 87 Octane setting.
Flowmaster catback too after that. But money is scarce. Got to decide whether all this money now is gonna help more buy using it for gas or by making the truck more fuel efficient, ya know?

Regular cab, short bed 5 thousand miles so far, 3.7 with manual tranny. 18.5 MPG per tank 5 miles from my house to the freeway, five miles from the freeway to my office 25 Miles of freeway in between. Cruise set at 70; Lots of revs to hear the flowmaster and smile.

So far the only mod is the flowmaster integrated into the stock pipe; Saw about a 1 MPG difference even with the increased revs.

Next moves are the touneau cover; and the Jeep Liberty intake from the air filter box to the throttle body (to eliminate the box on the engine - and a K&N filter.
