RHO range and MPG

[WSULLIVAN54]

I'm pretty positive if you plan on towing anything with this truck I'm guessing Sub 6mpg. You better get an Fn auxiliary gas tank in the Box

Towed a 6 x 12 tandem axle enclosed trailer 105 miles, single digit temps, west Texas winds 70mph averaged right at 10mpg.

Awesome, my fuel mileage has gone up alot since I broke it in. Still getting sub 10s going into the wind with cold temps but getting 14-15mpg with no wind on no incline roads. When I posted that I was around 250 miles on the engine. I knew it would get better. Pulling in winter 10mpgs doesn't sound to bad

It's not bad, but a 6x12 trailer is pretty small/light!

That's not bad at all mine was always around 10.5 could only touch 12 on long trips.

I have the same experience. I have taken to coasting a lot to see if I just drive aggressively. I cannot do better than 10/13 mpg. Why did RAM market it 50% better?

 

[JS59]

FWIW, I think they marketed it as 25% better mileage. 12 overall vs. 15. But, from the sound of it, no one was getting 12 in the TRX either - so the reality might be about 10 vs. 13 for TRX vs. RHO - which is still 30% better.

I have 1200 miles and my trip computer that has never been reset is at 14.1 Don’t do much city driving and highway is usually 70ish mph. As the engine is breaking in and temps warming up I have been going up .2-.4 mpg each week
