Good news for Ram!mentalicca said:FuelEconomy.gov has the official listing for the Ram 1500 Hemi with 8 speed finally...
2013 Ram 1500 4WD 5.7 L, 8 cyl, Automatic 8-spd, Midgrade Gasoline
15 City
17 Combined
21 Highway
I think this compares well with the 6 speed's rating of 13/15/19 (2 mpg across the board is nothing to scoff at).
Percentage increases are 15% city, 13% combined and 10.5% highway approximately. This makes me even more surprised that the 2014 Grand Cherokee with hemi can only muster 14 city, 16 combined, and 20 highway in 4WD form (up from 13/15/20)
I think the Grand Cherokee weighs more than the 1500 Ram.
