Hey everyone, I need some serious suggestions on improving the MPG on my 2020 Rebel with e 5.7 E- Torque. Also, suggestions for air bags for the rear end as I pull toe behind camper.

Airlift 1000HD are the air bags that I installed on my Rebel, my fuel economy is amazing, but it’s the Ecodiesel, my suggest is to keep your speed down on the highway, coast down before arriving at stops or traffic lights, and don’t floor the gas pedal after every stop or traffic lights.
My brother used to say “ I pinched the gas line with vise grips to get better mpg”

Keep your foot out of it! Which I know is very hard are these trucks are fun to drive and it’s like I have a hemi and it’s fun to feel the power and hear it roar! I was getting 16+ in town and 17-21 highway with my 19 Laramie, 5.7 3.92 etorque, stock highway tires. I now have a 21 Laramie, 5.7, 3:21, etorque, stock highway tires. 16+ in town and up to 22-23 highway! I use the 87 gas! Once you hit 60+ with them bug tires and that 3:92 rear end, the Rpm’s are at 2000+ , where my 3:21 will be at 1500+! Good luck👍🏻

It's not quite that bad with 3.92's. I have 33's with 3.92 gears and I am at 2000 RPM's at 77 MPH.
