Vintage RAM.... what to do?
I cannot believe how long I've been away from this forum but it seems like just yesterday. In 2003 I agonized over diesel v gas and would the Dodge 48RE tow heavy. I can surely say that now I KNOW...

aside from emissions the 2004 does nothing better then the 2016.
Are the latest trucks getting better fuel consumption again? When the first set of emmissions equipped diesels came out I remember hearing that the mileage was quite poor.
Yes the DEF trucks do a little better than the 6.7's for a few years before the DEF models.
People complain about DEF, it is mostly a non issue now. Chris
My 04 never got the magical 20+ numbers some claim. I do about 16mpg empty which was the same as my stock 6.7. Deleted the 6.7 did around 18mpg empty and could get into the 22-23mpg range on open flat highway. The 13-+ trucks are geared lower for fuel mileage unless you get a drw.
