New Member here,
e-light, great info. I ordered a 2014 Ram Crew Cab this week with the 6.4 Hemi and 4:10 rear end.
I to would like to know the average MPG's as I wait out the coming weeks. Also curious if you purchased the extended warranty?
Currently TV is a 2000 GMC 6.0 gasser
Mpg has been about 13-16 city for me. On this trip 9.2 which I am happy with considering the terrain.
I did not purchase the extended warranty. My dealer offers a free lifetime powertrain warranty as long as I do the service with them. Problem is that they are 70 miles from my house. So its not practical for me. I am happy with the 100,000 miles Chrysler powertrain warranty. I do almost all my own maintainence, I want to make sure its done right. And I feel like this 6.4L Hemi is a winner in the HD category. The design seems geared towards longevity.
My plan is to keep this truck until its paid off and then trade it in for a Ram 2500 with the Cummins. So far I am very impressed with this platform. So much so that I actually look forward to the towing parts of the trip! I used to dread the long drives. Now I cant wait!
