2003 dodge ram 2500 heavy duty 4x4

by robert
(dumont ,nj u.s.a.)

I was wondering - my Dodge has a hemi 5.7 and the mileage in city is really bad 5-8 mpg. Does anyone out there have any ideas on how to improve its mileage .??? or what kind of mpg it is supposed to get. Dodge will not reply because it is a 2500 and they don't have to give the ratings. Does anyone else out there get really bad mpg on their's under NORMAL driving please let me know if there is a solution.
thanks

Hi Robert
Yeah, that sounds terrible, even for a heavy Hemi.
Close to 12 mpg should be typical.

All the best,
Thrandur

I really enjoy seeing real 4WD vehicles in real situations where they are needed. There are so many highway bound posers that never go off the pavement here that seeing life or death 4 wheeling in Iceland is really refreshing.

It is fun to read about other people's Offroading adventures and also learning from the up and downs of their adventure!
