Must be a SO and/or SRW. My DRW HO got delivered with 15.5mpg, and dropped to about 12 with me driving to NC. But that was worst case unloaded highway MPG due to the weather. Luckily mine has been getting better after every fill up.
my 6.4 with 4:10's first two fill ups got abysmal MPG's I topped it off in NO after picking it up, and I think I got 12ish on the first tank, then 13-14 on the second. The third and fourth I got something like 16-16.5. By the time I got to the fifth fill up, I was at home and fueling on the company card, so I never cared to hand calculate what it was costing me again.
Hope it stays that way. 
Within 250 miles, they have their own runners that do the deliveries. Outside that, they put it out to carriers to quote for the delivery. They can give you a ballpark estimate.
Beautiful truck, congrats! I really like the look of the NFab wheel to wheel steps on the night edition mega cabs. They are about $500 and its 6 bolts each one to install.We rented a vehicle and drove 825 miles to Lake Charles LA. Spent the night and got in to Mark Dodge before they opened to find our trucks up front and ready to go. We couldn’t leave because we had a hold up with the funds for my truck. They can’t accept ACH, I didn’t know that. Aaron was awesome and we called our banks (Boa for me, Chase for them). I had to send another wire transfer to them. Boa and Chase assured me that the funds I sent via ACH were declined and will come back to my account in a few business days. (Funds did come back)
We hit the road. I was impressed with the truck. I know we were traveling on flat I10 going east but still impressed. MPGs peaked at 18.9 but average for 825 miles was 18.5. We had 2 HO and one 2500 trucks. The 2500 peaked at 19.2 MPG so pretty close to the 3500 HOs.
The trucks ride soo nice. Build quality seems great, will be able to judge better with time and more miles. The other 2 trucks suffered some chips on the front end. I warned them to keep distance but they did seem to follow close to trucks and other vehicles. My truck doesn’t seem to have any chips as I did keep plenty of distance between vehicles in front.
The screen is amazing. 920 miles already on the truck and not a single glitch or issue.Hope it stays that way.
There she is in the driveway. What a beautiful truck. Was it worth the 4 months wait? Hell yes, I would of waited 6 months to get this again and save 10k with MD deal.
One thing I would have done differently, order the damn running boards. Completely forgot about them. Now I’ll have to pay double for the oem steps. Definitely needs steps. Very tall truck.
Sorry for the long post.

The last 3 rams I had all had chrome bumpers. I absolutely hated the look and made sure to order the 22 with painted bumpers. Rock chips are definitely making me question that decision lol. I never realized how much the chrome was blocking possible rock chips.
).
Yeah the 3m stuff is pricey, I have been trying to talk the guy at work into doing it for me lol. My truck is by no means a show truck, even my dakota which would go to car shows I never considered a show truck. I just want to keep it looking new as long as possible.For the painted bumper chips I am sure you could get a 3M clear bra to put over the paint. I did that on my BMW and it worked really nice. But it is some work to do it proper.
Or some money to find somebody to do it for you.
Not sure how the 3M bra kits come but you could just do the most vulnerable areas and/ or leave the complicated shapes off.
Maybe worth looking into that?
I am not worried on my truck since it is white and so far paint chips are not super obvious. Also my truck is not a showcar (yours might be though
And stay away from the restaurant,gas station with the sign. Eat, get gas here.
