It'll honestly depend on how you drive it. I never got great mileage when it was stock...
With that, I lost 2-3mpg on city and hwy. I plan to get that back with a tuner, cai and gears soon tho I have yet to get single digits, even with a weekend of mudding included in that tank. Right now it's at 11.7, but it's ALL stop and go big city crap. I'm usually a steady 12. FYI I never got more than 13.5-14 with the same driving with the stock setup. On the hwy I can reset when I got to the beach, which is about 20-25 miles. It'll stay about 18ish, stock I could roll 20s. I think it does great for stock gearing......even better in the slop

i was reading in the new issue of lifted and they had a list of what tires could fit with which lifts but the only one they listed for the '09 which mine is was a 2" lift and 33" tires but they listed a bunch of different sizes for the '10-'11 rams, what year is yours? has anyone with an '09 had probs wit 37s? im thinkin of goin with 35s just to make sure that they never rub or give me problems. also, your new pics dont seem to work
