I did my first trip with my new rams It only had 1700kms when I left. Drove 400kms and it took 45l to full it back up. That’s 11.2litre/ per 100kms.
That’s driving an average of 110kms/h temperature -2 Celsius.
4 people in the truck, passing a few times, and in val-david Quebec where I went, there were lots of hills. So I am very pleased with that.

But city so far I am only doing 19.6l per 100kms hope that gets better since I do a lot more city driving then high way...

underground being "Uh.... yeah that looks like a foot, give or take a millimeter."

I'll admit I caught myself telling someone a wing gap was about 2 16ths of an inch off. Needless to say I felt doopid.

I wish america would get on it and go metric like the other 90% of the world.

Me too. I dont use SAE tools outside of construction. All of my American vehicles have been metric for years. I measure and fabricate in metric.

...man I'm so confused. Well hopefully 19.6L/100kms is like really good gas mileage! :********:Congrats on the new truck!

-2 Celcius... that's cold right?
