RE: Whats the most miles youve gotten in a single tank??
I average 350 miles per tank, 90% driving is done around town. And the 350 miles is when the gas hand is on the out of fuel line. I have been trying to keep my RPM's under 2000, but damn, it sure is hard to do. I used to get mad when people would take off from a light and take their time getting up to speed, but when I can't even fill up for $75, I don't care what people think about me. lol I bought my v-6 for better gas mileage...... it is better, but not much is worse than the 11-13 mpg I was getting with my 5.9 liter.... sigh. prolly won't be getting another ram due to the pissy *** gas mileage they get.... thats on down the road though.

Ha Ha same here I purchase the 3.7 for Gas mileage also I should of keep my V-8 Ford it would of been paid for by now. Never again a V-6 in a full size truck.
Yes I get better MPG than the Ford V-8 but it was not worth trading in for this truck after all at least the Ford had enough power to get out it own way.
I found out the hard way go to the Truck fourm first before buying a new truck and see what others have to say about it Buyer Beware.
