04 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 Quad Cab LWB with 6spd Cummins, 35" tires, 4" lift, exhaust, AFE intake, blah, blah, blah

My average since new over 41,308 miles is 17.36 mpg (I keep a spreadsheet)

. This average includes everything from traffic, some heavy towing, city, highway, warm ups, etc. However, on open highway running 75mph I get 21+ mpg. Stopping and starting a 8k lb truck around town REALLY kills my overall mileage.

EDIT: As a side note, check out what the IRS is doing for Diesel owners. You'd think to be fair they would do the same for gasoline running vehicles but nooo!
