    Real world mpg with hemi etorque

    I have very rarely seen it above 19. Mostly around low 18's. I don't use the stop start mode. Maybe it might increase if I did. 🤔 I'm getting those figures from what the dash display says. I have never actually pulled out a calculator and worked it out.

    Real world mpg with hemi etorque

    I live in central Florida. Mostly flat land. Between 17 and 19 mpg. Driving home today the display read 18.6. I've seen it read 16.6. On a long trip it was around 21 mpg.

    Does the RAM 1500 have autostop?

    2021 Ram Limited. I just read this thread and decided to look up my window sticker. I have the following listed on my sticker: ParkSense® Front and Rear Park–Assist with Stop So, I 'assume" it will stop backing up and going forward. I have had it stop backing up but never going forward. I...

    '21 RAM 1500 eTorque Recall...."Good News"

    Well....disappointment has set in. My average MPG has fallen back down to around 18 MPG. It was nice to dream. My neighbor has a Ford with the EcoBoost V6. He says his average around town is 21 to 22.

    '21 RAM 1500 eTorque Recall...."Good News"

    Gee...I hope that's not what is really happening! o_O This morning I zeroed out the MPG and did city driving around town. Probably drove around 60 miles today. I took this photo when I pulled back in my driveway. If it changes back to 18-19 MPG in a couple of weeks I'll be disappointed. I'll...

    '21 RAM 1500 eTorque Recall...."Good News"

    I would say you are correct. The recall as I understand it was for too much fuel being delivered to the cylinders (running rich).

    '21 RAM 1500 eTorque Recall...."Good News"

    I've had this truck for 2 years. My average "around town" MPG has always been around 17.8 to 18.2 MPG. Last Monday I had the recall done on the truck (took about 15 minutes). As of today, I am averaging 21 MPG! (y) I do very little highway driving, but I imagine the Highway MPG will be even...

    Rolling marble sound, drivers door

    Back in the 1he 1960's I worked in the "Get Ready for Delivery" Department at a local Chevy dealership. We had a car that had a "Banging/hammering/clanging noise" that was happening in the right, rear quarter panel of the car when driven. It was driving us crazy looking for it. Finally, one of...

    Ram box gap to tail gate

    I must say, that's pretty nice. I couldn't find anything like that when I designed mine. It's basically the same design I did but it's much sturdier. Gee...I might order those. (y)
