Jim from Pa said: (quoted from post at 12:33:48 03/11/09) I am considering a new Dodge 2500 Crew Cab with the 5.7L V8 and 3.92 gears. What kind of mileage can I expect with this truck around town & trips? I was all set to buy this truck until the salesman informed me the the 5.7 on a 2500 does not have the engine management feature so less MPG. I need a 3/4 ton for plowing and towing(local no long hard trips) but don't want 10MPG either. My
last 3/4 ton was a Ford f250 with 5.8L and I got 14MPG would like to be at least in that ballpark. Thanks in advance for any replies to this post. Jim
I work for a park system we have a 2005 Dodge crew cab short bed 4x4. With that godawful Hemi. It's not too bad in the 3/4 ton really, its the one ton we have with it that's underpowered. With the 3/4 ton with a 8 foot blade we get about 6mpg. 10-14 normal driving( Keep in mind that's the average after numerous different drivers). The one ton gets 4mpg plowing with a 9 foot Vplow.
