Just curious what others are getting with the V8 4x4 drivetrain.
After 2300 miles, I'm averaging an abysmal 12.9mpg according to the car, in mixed use driving. Car and Driver is getting 11mpg in their 6700 lbs, 700hp RAM TRX... Mine doesn't have the stop/start feature (wasn't available during production due to supply chain mismanagement) and I do use the remote start feature daily for 5-10 mins (very cold in Wyoming), but 12.9 still seems ridiculously bad in mixed town/highway use (55mph roads) compared to the 14/22 advertised. Even on my 1500 mile delivery road trip I only averaged 15mpg.
