Miles to the Gallon on a Dodge Ram

Hey, how many miles to a Gallon do you guys get on your Magnum or Hemi Engines? My friend had a 2001 Dodge Magnum, and he got like 7 miles to the gallon.....

I talked with a guy who had a 2500 with Hemi, he said he got 18 on highway if he took it easy.

Re: Miles to the Gallon on a Dodge Ram

1992 W-250 with the old TBI 360 is supposed to get around 13 mpg freeway, but with the 4.10 axles, she kinda gets around 10.5 just about everywhere, city/freeway, doesn't matter. I think with the tailgate off and nothing in the bed I think its gone up to around 11.5-12mpg. Hauling my 11' Slide-In Camper by itself fully loaded about 9.25 - 9.5 mpg. Hauling said camper, plus towing the 1000lb toy trailer behind it about 8.25-8.54 mpg if I'm pushing a head wind on the freeway.

Re: Miles to the Gallon on a Dodge Ram

Just done a complete tune up on my '02 360 after the tune up I drove 120 highway miles and got 12.8 MPG .... the next time I took the same trip, I dumped about 12 ounces of Lucas Fuel Injector cleaner in the tank and got 15.5 MPG .... the only difference is the first trip I was heading North, on the second trip I was heading south ... hahah.. the gain must be a combination of the treatment and the fact I was going downhill (south).. hahha either way, I am a believer in Lucas!!
