Whoa, only 10mpg and I was complaining about dropping to 17.5mpg! That is
one reason I opted to buy the V6 though. I am not sure what the 5.2l and the
5.9l are getting, I have heard from 12-15mpg. Of course there may have some
mods done before you got it that may have affected your mileage. Good luck
on helping it out, John.

I bought a 2001 R/T about 3 months ago from Texas (Huston). I'm not exactly
sure what all has been done to it before I got it. It does have an exhast
dump welded in place. I added a K&N induction system. It passed the
California Smog testing with no problem.
My milage is around 10 mpg, pretty bad. Any others with similar gas milage
or any suggestions.
The truck runs nice, no problems and reasonably fast.
Mike
