motonoggin Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I had a brand new one for two years. I loved it, impressive mileage and power. I got 18-19 summer and 15-16 winter. Nice ride, too. Only shortfall was towing or hauling something heavy. The rear coils squat a lot more than leafs. But that's why they ride so well. Airbags can pretty much fix that, and some came with them stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anler Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 The economy on my Ram is pretty respectable for this ass whoopin HEMI engine. I generally average between 17-18mpgs with a combination of city/highway miles. But when other people drive it and I check the economy average it goes up over 20mpgs. LOL My dad drove it to Wisconsin and back and it had average economy of 21.8 mpgs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
