I have a 98 RC 2WD 5.2 Auto with 3.92SG and Mopar headers and Pit Bull muffler
on stock pipes.
I average 12-13 mpg in town and that is with lots of stoplights. On the highway
I get about 20 at speeds between 45-55, about 18-19 at 60-65 and about 17 at
70-75. But If I drive over 75 it drops fast to about 14 at 85.
