There was a momentary hope in reading the title, then BAMM, shatter my world!

I've been to two dealerships that say because I have the 3.92 axle I should expect no more than the 12MPG combined (though I've never towed anything). Area Manager concurred. Now I have a case open with the attorney general's office up here in VT. I just want them to fix the dang thing.

I know it's not much but I can say without a doubt a tonneau cover and good gas helps a lot. kroger where I am has ethanol free 90 which brought my combined total from 16.5 to 20.4. when I added the tonneau cover it went up to 22-23 or 20 with regular gas but that was driving nice. also I had to return the tonneau because it was damaged so when I took it off I dropped right back down. I still get mid 20s when I use ethanol free and about 16-17 on regular. a good intake and exhaust can help a little if you keep your foot out of it.

Real simple. Buy a cold air intake and a pedal commander, and for the naysayers I say this. If you say a CAI doesnt make a difference I say to some it does I went from 370 miles tank of gas to 451 a tank of gas and now it drives as it should.....pedal commander is so worth the money. And just a fyi I have had tuners and CAIs on every vehicle I've owned since 1996. That being said I'm impressed to so far

Of course if fuel is what you are worried about you could always move into the new ram 3.500
Fully electric! See your local Wal-Mart for a test drive.

LOL, those who complain about MPG's, shouldn't be buying a vehicle with a V8

No complaints here. My 6 cylinder doesn't use any gas.

But you really need to tweek the manaform on the adjustment arm and then fart a lot to take advantage of the tail wind.

Good point - I see that Kroger has a sale on black beans this week, really should take advantage . . .

It might, but then you have to subtract for the extra weight of the stickers, so it's probably a wash.
