New to me TV
Just returned from Rhode Island with the "new to me" 06 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a Hemi, 5.7. What a pleasure towing. Although the 1500 "baby eight" had enought towing capacity to handle the 2363, the bigger truck was superior in handling, braking and hill climbing. The gas mileage towing was surprising simular to the baby eight. The 4.7 averaged between 10-12 MPG depending on headwinds, the first tank in the Hemi was 10.8 MPG. I am now enjoying the ride a lot more.
