2018 Ram Cummins Towing 12.5k mpg

10.87 mpg! Not great, but not bad considering the brick it was towing. The Ford Powerstroke they tested earlier was 10.05 mpg which still is not bad.

How do the gasers compare towing the same 12.5k lb trailer?

Ford 6.2L - 8.59 mpg

Ram 6.4L - 7.34 mpg

I know, I know, it is not apples to apples since the gasers were base model regular cabs and the diesels were decked out crew cabs 4wds.

Lots of 6.2 Ford fans, yes, me too. I average about 8.5. I have gotten 10+ a few times, under ideal conditions, with all time low 7.8. My speedometer reads about 2 mph fast at 60 mph, so could make my mpg look just a little better than actual.

Thanks for sharing... It's interesting that some report the on board fuel economy readout is very close to calculated fuel economy and some report theirs are not even close. These both runs from both trucks were very close.

I quit reading that driver years ago. It's as bad as fake news.
