With the previous Dakota, I was getting only 12-MPG around the city.

MPG numbers for thr 3.7 and 4.7 4x4's with auto trannies:

15 city/19 highway for the 3.7L V6 auto, 4x4 (dissapointing)

15 city/20 highway for the 4.7L V8 Auto, 4x4 (about what I expected)

Sticks will prolly yeild 1-2 MPG variance in economy over the EPA rating
for the Autos.
