My Mileage; about 10-11mpg combined city/short hiway trips. Flat freeway at 75, about 12. With 4.56 gears, I should be cruising at 65 to get better milage, but screw it!
I would also probably get better if I let the tank run down to near empty, but I usually refill at 1/2 tank in case I have to get out of town due to an earthquake or nuclear attack. [sm=alcoholic.gif]

From what the say in the literature, the Power Wagon's suspention is softer than the other Dodge 4x4's to allow better articulation in extreme conditions. I will say that my friends' 2004 2500 SLT QC 4x4 Diesel is way more stiffly sprung, front and rear.
