New Ram owner

It’s a huge difference from my Colorado. Night and day!

my biggest concern with this truck it the fuel mileage. Almost went with the Pentastar 3.6 etorque this. However, after test driving, the v6 mpg was only 1 or 2 better than the hemi.

anything I can do to maximize MPG besides driving like a grandpa?

thanks
Mine has the 3.92 rear end so I'll see bad gas mileage no matter what.
 
My window sticker says Keyless Go
What does that mean?

Keyless go is using the remote to lock/unlock the door, no key required to enter or start the Ram. Passive entry only requires you to have the remote with you, touch the handle and it unlocks.

This was not clearly defined and few/some/many believed keyless did what passive does. It is easy to confuse as many lower $$ vehicles come with passive entry. My wife's 2017 Honda Civic has the passive entry.

Initially it appeared that keyless could not be modified to passive entry, but forum members figured it out. There is a long thread on the 5th Gen Forum on this topic. Requires a different wire harness and software.
 
I think what helps me is setting the cruise when I can to make it drop to 4 cylinders.
