I am curretly considering puchasing a used 2007 Dodge Quad Cab. It has 14000 miles and has the 4.7 v8 engine. What is the best fuel mpg I can exspect on the hwy? Is $16999 a reasonable price for this truck?

 

With the HUGE rebates on 2008's now, you could probably get a new 08 for 2-3k more. Then you would get an extra 60+ hp in the 4.7, the lifetime powertrain warranty, and get similar milage to the 2007. I have an 08 Hemi and get 13-15 city and 19-20 freeway so you would probably get about the same with the 4.7L.

 

I wouldnt mess with used especially since its only an 07. Id go new like bones said and cash in on the powertrain etc. The price difference wont be that far off.

 

i get about 14 in town and 19 highway. yesterday i went on a short trip and with the cruise set at 67 i got 20.4 on the way there and 18.4 on the way back.

 

Good advise all round, shop carefully, going new is a very good route right now. Between dealer incentives, unlimited drive train warranty and the improved 4.7 its hard to justify going used. On top of that you can still order the 4.7 with the 6 speed manual and really rock!
