Baby it on the highway and there have been a couple who almost got 20mpg.

Ive never seen more then 16-18

Thanks

That what I thought. I almost bought the venom 1000 but my wife really freaked out. She was afraid it would get 4 mph so I backed off on it.

Depends on RC or QC, and year. All have some issues but its a stable vehicle IMO.

I appreciate the info. I just did not want to jump into shallow water head forst. I think I am still going to go for it. I may have to sleep in it. Thanks guys.

Good thinking, I sleep in my truck all the time too.

Be honest with you bro, You should not buy this truck if you are worried about mpg.

 

[ViperJeff]

Yea real simple.....

6-7 mpg when having fun

10.5 city

13.2 highway

Never babied, just driven

and if it say Hennessy, I would be more worried about shop costs, than gas...






This truck is like any other performance vehicle. If you have to ask because it makes a difference when it comes to sevice costs, gas costs and insurance costs, it costs too much.....


Oh, and I hope you become a member of the RBC, you'll love every second

Cheers

Has been one of the best vehicles I have ever owned and I drive the piss outta mine. Are you buying a quad cab or regular cab? The six speed gets much better milage than the auto.

LOL if you bought the Venom 1000 you would get great gas mileage reason being it would always be on a trailer or in the shop getting fixed.. LOL gas mileage would be your last worry.. Seriously you would be lucky to get it out of the trailer from delivery and have it still running .. H products are shit.. several on this forum have had the Venom 1000 and the owner never even finished one tank of gas ..
