8-9 mpg. I checked every tank individually (smart phone app) and did the overall average for my last trip. Best tank towing was 9.1 and avg was 8.7 mpg. That included mountain grades, rainstorms, wind, and some flat terrain towing over 1900 miles. Basically a mix of everything.
For comparison, my last truck (5.9L Cummins) got around 10 - 11 mpg pulling the same RV in the same types of conditions. More often 11 than 10.
So I lost 2 mpg across the board - empty and towing. Empty hwy the Hemi will do 16 - 18 where the diesel would do 19 - 21.
I think I know the answer.....but in case I'm assuming wrong...are your MPG figures as per Canadian gallon (British Imperial) or the smaller (by 20%) U.S. gallon.
I'm assuming your MPG figures you provided are as per, U.S. gallon.
Yes, US gallons - 3.78L.
About 26L/100Km for us metricans :B
