2022 5.7 fuel economy 10 mpg city ???

[jzinckgra]

decrease pressure on the LOUD pedal.. .... I m getting 18 city..26-28 hiway with 1000 miles on it

I call BS. No way unless you have a V6.

I’m outside the DFW area and see anywhere around 18-21mpg. My average has been around 19mpg though so Im not complaining here. Just have to drive it with a soft foot. If my brother drives my truck he usually averages around 14-16mpgs. He has somewhat of a heavy foot, but also he doesn’t understand cruising to a red light or how a small amount on the throttle can bring the mpg’s from what I get to what he usually gets.

Yeah unless he has an eco diesel. I can’t see much above 24mpgs on a hemi.

I got 3.92 rear end. I average 18 mpg mix of city & highway. Get about 15.5 if just city driving. I can get 22-24 mpg if highway & keep it under 60 mph !!

The easiest way to get great MPG.

Coast. Coast as often as you can.

Accelerate slowly. Coast to stops. Brake as little as possible.

Coast.

Keep Rpm bellow 2000.

And this is why trucks are no fun anymore.

Smash that throttle and enjoy yourself.

Fill up when you need gas and repeat.

Trucks like gas. It makes them happy.

At full throttle a hellcat can empty its gas tank in 11 minutes. So if you can drive longer than 11 minutes...you are winning

Absolutely, even on my Rebel, if I drive like a granny, say late at night when I can't p*ss people behind me off, I can get surprislying good mpg, using some basic hypermiling techniques. I'm talking 17 city / 21 highway on a 33" tired Rebel.

But drive anywhere near normal, so that person behind me doesn't get mad, and I'm at 13 city / 17 highway, but mixed I'm barely getting 14 mpg. Get aggressive, and be seeing even lower.

Not complaining, love my truck and motor combination.

My best is 24 - flat and straight highway.

Yeah I’ve gotten 24 on a good stretch but I can’t average 24 in one full tank. Best tank according to Fuelly is 22.6mpg.

You are entitled to your own opinion but not your own facts.. since you have never been in my truck, you have no facts.. and YES, I do get that MPG in my E-Torque Hemi here in FLAT south Louisiana on the hiway.. My 2017 Hemi got 24-25mpg... maybe your problem is your poor driving habits . I have a Corvette that gets 30mpg.. Guess you dont believe that either?

maybe you should use the miles you drove divided by the gallons you use to get actual mpg, instead of relying on the truck to tell you .. or learn to drive better

Yes I’m using 89 octane. What kind of increase in fuel economy should I expect after the engine is full Brocken in?

I have a 2021 Ram 5.7 with 2.92 rear end. Most I've got was 21.5 on the expressway. Most often get between 17.5 to 18.5 around town. Takes about 2000 miles to get full economy.

I actually believe you, on a flat road you can score some crazy high mpg on these trucks. However, to be fair, my initial response would be like the others on how that's possible if I didn't know that.

Now that we know what kind of roads you are on, it makes sense to me.

exactly . but some people here get their only exercise JUMPING to conclusions .. instead of getting ALL the facts first and making an informed comment.

Now I understand how you're getting such good mpg
