Hello,

I have a 2012 4.7 4x4 extended cab and i have noticed lately very poor mileage! 330 km on 3/4 tank!
It has been cold so i understand fuel mileage goes down along with using the winter fuel. My idea was to try puttting cardboard over rad because maybe the motor is not getting up to operating temp causing it to run rich?

If i had my way i would get rid of this truck so gutless compared to my last ram sport with the hemi and doesnt get any better mileage for having a smaller motor but due to finaces i had no choice.

Last winter i had many electrical problems that the dealer would not fix. Bought truck new in 2012 have 50,000 km on it.
