What's going on? I've just bought a 05 RAM 1500 daytona quad cab. This is my first dodge and love it. What's some of the best mods for mpg? Ive had a 00 trans am with 500 HP getting 22.3 mpg so just wondering what are some nice mods to help get HP and mpg?

do your normal set up start with a exhaust, cai, tuner, powerwire, e-fan, and then move onto stuff like gears and headers, along with a P&P TB, and eventually a cam maybe a 6.1 setup.....i dont think youll ever hit that 22 mpgs in a truck ever unless on the highway....but it is a heavy truck....

Welcome to RF. Sounds like a nice ram. Jay is right though with the normal upgrades to get MPG. But the hemi isn't exactly known for MPG's but more power. Some guys can squeeze almost 20 on the highway. But exhaust, Tuner, and CAI and maybe a TB would be the best way to start. Oh yea got any pics?? We pic ****** love pics lol.

Yep, RH was thinkin bout the same thing! Marty Stuart, this ones gonna hurt for a long Time! I like listenin to Outlaw Country on sirius radio, not bad for a long haired dope smokin civy from the seventies (before boot-camp).

Welcome to RF, David. I was thinkin Daytona's are a real nice place to start and some day will be a collectors Item IMO! More than the Rumble Bee.

Welcome man. Gonna be hard to get close to those MPG's brother. Hangin' around these guys will also make you drop some coin too. Just wait till the mod bug hits you.
