Ok guys looking for some feedback. I currently have a 1500 Ram with the 5.7 hemi and 3.92 rearend with airbags and GN hitch. The truck is great and does all I want of it, but when towing I get 8-11mpg depending on my lead foot, GVW, and terrain. The truck runs daily and has about 60k on it in its 18months of ownerships.
Therefore, I have the opporunity to jump into a 2012 2500 with the 6.7 but have heard ALOT of mixed feedback on the truck. I am looking at a manual 6.7 with 3.73 rearend. I would keep this truck until I kill it which hopefully is a long way off. But I dont want to give up decent mileage just to get a more powerful truck.
So my questions: 1. What kind of mileage are you getting? 2. I know the diesel last longer than the hemi, but is there anyone out there towing with 100k or more on the hemi? Power loss? 3. General input welcomed.
