I don't know if anyone else here has a camera phone or a digital camera but to prove we are not lying we should take a picture of our gas mileage in town and on the interestate to show others it is possible so there is no question. Anyone have gps cause its more accurate according to some so maybe we could also that that too. I know i will try and do it next time i'm driving to st.louis.

Just because I do not believe,I don't think it is necessary to call people you do not know "********".
I wonder how old you are for such immature behavior. I also wonder if you would say it to my face....Probably Not!!!
Grow-up, Be nice, express you opinions without refering to calling people names. Can You do that? or are you just an adolesent *****!
For the record, I did not call you an ******* - I said you were acting like one, and you were.

"I have only managed 375 miles out of a tank so far. I have a 34 gallon tank. 475 miles? on a 26 gallon tank.......BULL"

You speak of immaturity like you are one to lead by example, however the above statement would make me believe otherwise. You also use the word "refering" where the word "resorting" should have been - Then you yourself procede to make cheap shots. Well let me ask a few questions now.

How would you react if I told you that I was 22 years old, 6 feet 9 inches tall, and 285lbs? I would not be afraid to say anything to your face. Also, just because I am younger than you does not necessarily mean that I am prone to any more immature behaviour than you. Suggesting that I am scared of you over the internet, playing the tough guy, that is so 1996.

In fact... You are probably twice my age, yet I already own my own home, I am married with a wonderful wife, and I own the truck of my dreams... The way that I look at it, I have accomplished everything you have done in life, in half the time... Deductive reasoning would make me twice as succesful as you.

phantomdjx, for the record I have plenty of pictures of my trip... Here I'll go ahead and post some.

No problem friend. As I already stated, the 24MPG was the highest I saw it during the trip... For the entire trip, average was just over 18MPG. I am sure that if my truck had less weight (2WD instead of 4WD, and RC instead of QC) and a tonneau cover... 20MPG would be easy.

I have had my 06 1500 hemi since the begining of december. i can get my trip computer to say i get 22 mpg but that is only if i hit the reset button on the over head computer and let off of the gas but as soon as i step on the gas it drops to 19 mpg that is cruising @ 65 mph on i75. but through out the week with city driving it averages out to 16.5 mpg. On the other hand i had a 06 2500 cummins diesel and was averaging around 17.5 mpg before i totaled it!

Check it by keeping track of your mileage between fill ups, not the overhead console. The overhead console is always better than what you are really getting.

i sure hope its not, ive never seen over 12 on mine, hope its not worse than that.

Well I guess that by your response you really are immuture, Your presumptions about me really what gives me that thought. Are you the one that distroyed your transfer case showing off for your in-laws? Smart move ! You talk a good game, but your actions speak otherwise. Low Gear 4 wheel on pavement!!! "Deductive reasoning would make me twice as succesful as you" Sorry I quoted you... "just because I am younger than you does not necessarily mean that I am prone to any more immature behaviour than you. " Woops!, Quoted you again. I guess everybody can get their own conclusions
