Anyone else make a long commute with their Ram’s?

2019 Ram 1500 Quad Cab 4x4 5.7 Hemi

130 miles round trip (5 days a week)

I just got the truck a week ago, but the average for the past week seems to be about 17.5-18mpg mostly highway at speeds of 70mph-80mph

What’s the mileage you guys are getting?

I commute 82 miles a day round trip not included if I go anywhere for lunch. I average about 16 mpg. I sit in a lot of traffic on the way home at night. Hope to change that soon lol

Same here. Especially in the Summer as I live right next to the shore in New Jersey so all of New York and North Jersey come down lol.

I have a 40 mile round trip to work each day, not super long, but most of it is city driving. Traffic, stop lights and average speed of 40-45 mph when moving. I was getting mpg in the 14-15's. After my first oil change to full synthetic I bumped to the 16's. Now I just added an S&B cai and I'm seeing 17's. I'm not complaining at this point, very happy.

I used to travel from Millville to Wildwood 2xs a day and that summer traffic was killaaaaaa.
Ha! No doubt! I lived in Sea Isle and went to HS in Ocean City. In the summer you could walk anywhere faster than you could drive. I used to pump gas on the Parkway!

I occasionally take mine to the office, almost 100 miles round trip. No idea on the mileage; I've never checked it because I don't care. It's a comfortable ride especially when it's freezing outside.
