Gas mileage

[Yellowjacket4x4]

2022 Laramie 6.4l hemi snow chief. 6500 miles average 10.5 mpg city and highway. Can not remember gears. The question is how or when can I expect mpg to be better. I know it's a big truck. But there has to be better gas mileage.

I have a 21 Laramie Hemi, 4.10 gears, I only have 5,800 miles at the moment and I average 13 mpg. Mine is about 75% towing 10-12k lbs, the other 25% is my wife driving to the grocery store… so many variables can change your fuel economy, it’s a heavy truck, anything over 10 mpg and I’m happy.

My wife took a road trip with my 6.4 2020 Ram 2500 with 4.10s and it’s at about 73k miles the trip was about 3.5 hours one way.

When she returned it showed +19 MPG.

However, it dropped down with local driving to 17 MPG today.

2020 PW on 35's so 4.10 gears and over 30,000 miles probably average 15mpg. I have never gotten 10mpg unless I was offroading. I live in Montana so speeds are usually 75-80mph on the highway. I have had plenty of tanks at 18mpg if I keep it at 60-65mph. I don't let mine idle.

Whatever the Fuelly widget below says...
The Lie-o-meter is usually .5 to 1 mpg off...

But there was that one time when the MDS was kickin'!!

 

[Firebird]

My 6.4 with 3.73 gears averaged 10mpg
My 6.4 with 4.10 gears averaged 12mpg

These numbers are mainly in town

Drive no faster than 55mph and pretend there’s a egg on the gas pedal when taking off from a stop.

My 2020 power Wagon with 35's averages 9.5 on my daily commute to work and home.

My lie-o-meter is typically about.7 over, but on that trip hand calculated was higher (1st time for that).

The next trip with some towing (flatbed w/ 3k of sheet metal) was 14 MPG.

I have basically the same truck. I have the 3.73 ratio. I am getting 12.75 average millage.

'21 PW on 35's and 35K miles.

I've seen everything from 11 MPG to 15 MPG on the highway. In town as been less.

It all depends on my right foot.

I will say that basically anything over 75 MPH doesn't make a difference in MPG. Below that, it can.

'21 Megacab 2500 with 4:10s will get about 16 with my normal highway speeds, which are aggressive. If I set the cruise at 55 I will get 19, but I aint got time for that!
