the MPGs do concern me. i know it's a larger truck than my LC, but i wanted a lot more from this transition...i gotta admit. especially since it was a vehicle i liked so much. i'd get around 15 in my LC....so at least that was what i'd want driving without towing. is 12 MPG the average experience form users on this forum you think? what do you get towing?
thanks, again, for adding to the conversation.

Unless the MPGs on the 2019s are drastically different (mine is shipping to the dealer right now), my 2016 3500 6.7 gets much better mileage. Normal city driving I get 15-17mpg. Highway, not towing, I get 21-24mpg if I am driving the speed limit. If I'm "in a hurry" I get 17-19. Towing numbers sound about right.
My MPGs were pretty low (comparably) when I first bought my 2016 though, as I put miles on it, it gradually got better. Maybe that's where the current numbers are coming from.
All of that to say, I don't think you'll be disappointed with fuel mileage on the Cummins. I have no experience with the 6.4l Hemi to offer that comparison.
