My brother drives an '06 Ram 1500, 4x4, with 5.7L MDI. On his last trip from Cheyenne to NY he averaged 20+ mpg, the return trip was only around 17 mpg. Pulling a 4000 lb enclosed trailer from California to Cheyenne he averaged 17+.
My brother inlaw drives an '04 Ram 2500, 4x4, with 5.7L. He has made a lot of modifications to the truck, but does get 15-17 highway. Under load I think he is down around 11-12mpg.
My father inlaw drives an '04 Ram 1500, 4x4, with 5.7L. Also has made modifications, but only gets 14-15 highway. I suspect he gets around 10 with a trailer.
My dad drives a '97 Ram 2500, 2x4, diesel, manual, with no modifications. Normal highway is 25mpg, towing is around 20mpg.
