Any unloaded highway miles?
What motor oil weight does the truck require?
What motor oil brand do you plan to use?
I have about a 6 mile highway commute to get to the city every day. On the highway (for that short trip) it's usually about 15 mpg on the "instant" mpg screen.
You have already got the info on the oil, it uses the same 0w40 full synthetic that the SRT cars use. I plan to let the dealer change the oil (as much as I don't want to) to ensure I keep my warranty intact. I emailed Chrysler about doing the changes myself, and the effect on warranty, and the response I got didn't fill me with confidence that they'd back me on warranty should I need it if I did them myself.
Based on my use, I think I'll only need it changed twice a year anyway.
