This is how I have mine most of the time. I like that I can see everything at a glance but I may feel differently once I get more miles on it. Trips A and B up top, fuel average and range at the bottom, oil change info and instant MPG on the left.

I turned everything off including the Eco light. Looks too cluttered and none of the extra info it can display is of any concern to me.

Turn the MDS off around town and use cruise on the highway. You gotta find the sweet spot for your gears too. I have 3.92's so my sweet spot is 55-68mph. Anything over that and I'll average 18-19mpg.

So here's my current setup. I keep changing it around as i find some of the stuff on the corners is dupicate info to what is selected in the center. So far this seems to be the best at showing everything I want to see no matter what the center is selected to. Wasn't too fond of the EVIC when I got the truck but now I couldn't imagine my dash without it!

Yeah I saw on your you're around 20 which is awesome! You must do a good amount of highway driving? Around town I get around 15 hand calculated. I think my average right now on the EVIC is 15.3. On the highway I can get anywhere from 18-23 hand calculated depending on how flat the road is, how much traffic, and how much MDS is on. MDS definitely helps on the highway although I cant say I'm too fond of it around town. Problem is I have a company vehicle so my truck doesn't get much highway use which makes my EVIC avg stay in the 15-16 range. I have the 3.55s also...

I have about a 90 mile round trip commute to work. I'm about 75% highway, 25% stop & go traffic. I average 18-19. That pic with the 20.1 was definitely on the high end for me. I have 3.92's. The auto start in cuts into my mileage too. I'm interested to see what the summer will bring when the traffic lightens up and the gas changes.

Mine. When I'm towing, which is 75% of the time. When im not towing the only thing I change is the temp displays to speedometer.

When I get 18-23 on the highway I am VERY easy on the throttle. I have noticed the mpg of this truck is extremely sensitive to how you drive it. I have had tanks where I get around 13 but thats usually when I have some fun my Hemi :angels25: I also have a tonneau cover which definitely helps...

I have a cover too but its the same. On the highway you cant be light on the throttle when you have it on cruise control @ 75mph it is where its at and it cant get passed 17mpg :(

I have the 87mm throttle body and Trinity on the way... hope that changes soon! :)

Yeah I try and stay away from cruise when I'm going above 65. It seems like the truck is always reving past 2k just to get back to the set speed even if it dips down 1 or 2 mph. I find that if want to go say 75 I let it drop down to 70 or so up hills. I find that keeps the truck in 5th or 6th and if your lucky MDS will stay on longer...

Not a lot of hills in South Texas... on the road to San Antonio is mostly flat roads with a 75MPH speed limit.

I'm NEVER at speed limit lol but with the RAM i am cause i cant seem to get the MPG passed the 17.x MPG mark.

On the other hand, the little GLI gets me 32MPG @ 80-85 lol different animal i know but still

Going under the Speed Limit is just Un-American! :nutkick:

Yeah thats definitely flat country there. Here in Mass the max speed limit is 65 so I rarely go over 75. And the closest highway to me that I use frequently is 55. Thats gotta be the difference...
