Default poor gas milage

I have a 2003 Ram 1500 Quad Cab. It's milage hasn't been good since I bought it 3 years ago. But now with prices and more traveling for work need to figure out why it's so poor. It has a 4.9 liter. Auto trans. it gets about 10 mpg. The tires are the size called for in o/m. If anyone has any suggestions, glad to hear them.

Check tyre pressures are correct, clean air filter, have you changed ALL the oils recently?
