I didnt buy mine (19 Big Horn 4x4, 5.7 eTorque) with mileage in mind, but I am getting 20 local/combined driving and 25 on extended trips, I certainly wont complain. I traded in a V6 Pontiac G8 that struggled to get similar mileage.
You do realize you just quoted me right??? That was my post kid.He's too obtuse to understand this.
Lmao!! I know!! It was horrid when I test drove that glorious from the outside yet awful on the inside AT4hey man the 90's called and they want their interior back
just joking around because I really think all the big 3 make really good trucks but that's the one area the Ram's really stand out!Lmao!! I know!! It was horrid when I test drove that glorious from the outside yet awful on the inside AT4
The Rebel has the 392 gears which we all know. At 80 mph I’m running around 2250 rpm’s. The Escalade with the 10 speed should be running somewhere around 1800. Drop it down a gear or 2 so you are setting at the same rpm as your truck. I imagine you will loose a little on mileage.......in our 2018 Escalade with the 6.2L/10-speed and averaged 21.3 mpg fully loaded down doing 80 mph......
My rebel gets 14 mpg doing 65.....in a vehicle that weighs less and has 25 fewer ponies under the hood. Anyone else have a bit of buyers remorse due to the horrendous mpg??
It’s clearly the rebels that suffer. The height. No air dam. 3.92 diff. Tires. I get it. Just sayin
That seems low @ 65 MPH, even with oversized tires and the 3.92,......in our 2018 Escalade with the 6.2L/10-speed and averaged 21.3 mpg fully loaded down doing 80 mph......

I definitely wish I would've done the 2020 eco diesel instead of the hemi...I get 18mpg tops in my 20 Laramie ORP. Hoping that when I move to 35s it will increase highway mpg as I'll run at lower rpms at highway speeds......in our 2018 Escalade with the 6.2L/10-speed and averaged 21.3 mpg fully loaded down doing 80 mph......

Around town that's true but unsprung weight isnt nearly as big an issue when you are at constant velocity (it's hard on acceleration) so adding 35s will drop my gear ratio from 3.92 to probably around 3.6 or 3.7 which should result in an extra mpg or so. If I could constantly hit 20 mpg on highway I would be alright with thatRollinit when you go to bigger tires your mpg will go down not up. More weight to move and less aero
Going to 35's will drop your mpg, even on the highway.Around town that's true but unsprung weight isnt nearly as big an issue when you are at constant velocity (it's hard on acceleration) so adding 35s will drop my gear ratio from 3.92 to probably around 3.6 or 3.7 which should result in an extra mpg or so.

Around town, yes, but not necessarily true for freeway.Going to 35's will drop your mpg, even unloaded.
