Fuel economy has stayed pretty much about the same throughout the
mods. The truck has always done well on gas for an R/T and continues
to do so. Right now I get about 16mpg on the highway and 13.5mpg
daily driving, which is about 50/50 highway/city. I get on it too, no
babying. As for driveability, much better than stock, a lot more fun!
Acceleration is noticeably better, especially once the tach crosses
3000, and the full Hotchkis suspension means loads of fun in the
curves.
