On my R/T there was a time coming back from class and I reset it and was getting 22 mpg while going 60. On the way back to my house from picking up the 2012 I got 18.7 going 70 for about 28 miles and 2 miles of 45 mph city(I reset it right when I left the lot)

I did a 60 mile trip last week and kept it in eco mode as much as possible. Ran between 65 and 73 and got 21.4.
Have a 2wd quad cab with 3.21 ratio.
