Hello,
I am a first time poster here. I am currently looking at purchasing a 2006 Ram 2500 Cummins Mega Cab 4x4 (4spd auto / 3.73 ring and pinion). The one concern I have so far is, the reported fule mileage of this beast. A friend of mine recommended using the newgroups to get an honest report, from actual knowledgeable users.
The dealer tells me that he has customers that report up to 30MPG with their trucks on the highway. I on the other hand, have read many conflicting reports about this trucks fuel consumption. So far, I've found the mileage to be anywhere from 15MPG all the way up to 30MPG, which is a pretty broad range.
I was wondering if any Cummins owners could shed some light on the real fuel consumption numbers of this engine.
I am speciafically looking for;
A) City driving
B) Highway
C) Actual Combined (average day-to-day city/highway driving)
Any insight that you could give, would be mighty appreciated. Thanks for you time.
Mike C
