Rebel w etorque MPG...What should be expected

[Bwarren2]

There will be a hit w 33 ' tires, I saw the 8MPG on fuelly.com but there is no way thats normal, any input what you have ssen?

I've only done two fill ups, but tracking with aCar for Android.

First was with the fuel from the dealership - probably 87 octane. I got 15.1 MPG.
Second was with premium (mixing in to make mid-grade in the tank). Got 16.0 MPG.

The third one's going to suck since it's just repeated trips from here to Home Depot about 2 miles away.

Just running around in town.

Manual says for the 5.7L, I ought to run mid-grade, but 87 works.

Our first tank averaged 16.1 without the eTorque. Fairly mixed driving.

First 800 miles and 16.1 MPG.

I wanted one because I am very happy with the 3.6 in my Outdoorsman but it's not available for Rebel in Canada. Heck I can't even order the Hemi Etorque yet.

That's the lowest I've heard, most get respectable MPG. Are you a lead foot, in high altitude or all city ? Curious why yours is much lower

Are you in Southern California, judging by your profile name? Our gas is formulated differently here and I think that does contribute to lower mileage. Not sure how much lower though.

No I'm not a lead foot. I can cruise control 50 miles at 70 and still get maybe like 13.5 if I'm lucky. Im not sure why. My 2016 sierra got 15 mpg with 33x12.50 mud terrain tires. I'm in Los Angeles

I wish I knew why. Worst mpg compared to any other truck I've owned. I thought it was because of the 3.92 diff.

I get right around 19 highway, 17-18 City.

This is what I get with my ram 2500 diesel with 1500 lb. Welding machine, oxygen and acetylene tank, copper welding cables and tool box. Lol I think there is something wrong with my rebel?

I think all 4x4 Rebs have the 3.92

Yea I know but I've never owned a truck with anything higher than 3.40 and I wasnt aware that it was just me with low mpg lol

I just picked my Rebel. On first tank I am averaging 15.6 mpg

regular unleaded?

 

[Mducred]

Not sure if they put 87 or 89. Still on the tank from dealer. Once I go to fill up will put 89 and see how it does.
