Who has the best fuel economy?

OK guys, somebody help me here.
How do you raise the BS Flag?
There were 5 of us in the caravan to AZ, all of them were with me :dontknow: :rock: (VooDoo, whitesnake, Srtbrad, SRT4PWR, etc..)

The CAR (3400 pounds, and a C.A drag of low .3's.) , when I'm doing 90-100, rpm;s are about 2k w/ the 3.07's.

I average 19.2 - 19.6 hwy, and 12.3 - 12.8 city.:D
 
I pretty much get 9.5 - 11.5 per tank of gas. No matter how I drive her it always lands somewhere in these two marks. I think I will reset the counter when we hit the Track day at the SE GTG :D
 
If my on board computer is accurate I’m getting an average of 12.1 all the time.

I get around 9.7 most of the time, city driving. On the highway I have seen around 14. QC does not have that nice tall 6th gear.
 
Remember, if you have different larger injectors, the MPG display will be incorrect. You would have to use the odometer and the gallons to figure it out correctly. Larger injectors always report higher MPG in the display. Mine says 19 but my wallet says 13.
With all this gas price hikes, I am working on a MPG program. But it is hard to find a SRT10 witha SCT that cannot keep his foot out of it. And I don't blame you! Average seems to be 18. But writing a program like this requires a tame foot by the driver.
 
I've averaged between 18.7(best ) and 8.3(worst).It seems that if you play a couple of times,You play catch up with the rest of the fuel.My average miles per tank(25 Gallons or less)is aprox.250 miles.On a trip from Fl. to N.J.,I averaged aprox.475 miles per tank (80+ average).After my tune with Marty,I'm hoping for improved milage at cruise speeds as well as performance gains.
 
Running 65mph on flat interstate I'll get 14.1. I pretty much average 11.9-12.2 tank after tank........on my tank.

That would be good for a long trip. But do you think you could actually get signifigant MPG gains. Enough I mean to rack your brains over. After all these are SRT-10's not a Prius right?

Let's put it this way. If my truck were a drinker and the gas station was a bar. My truck would be an alcoholic and a drunk. My point, it is what is you know.:D :D

Well said! I dont really care about my MPG...I go by "Smiles per miles", which this truck gives me more of than any other toy i've had. Ever.:elefant:

hell, the ride home was even faster. i got something like 11 mpg on the trip back at 100+ mph :D :D :D
 
No, you are right, it is not for everybody. But if someone is getting ready to take a trip, I'll shoot them a SCT tune to see what it can do. Guessing maybe 3 more mpg?

Right now mine is getting outstanding MPG. Oh wait, I forgot. It's at the dealer and I can't drive it!!! :(

I guess I will go check on the tuner again and see how it's doing...
 
I get 10 to 12 in town and 16 to 18 on the road. The day my picture was taken I got 4.3 mpg in four 20 minute sessions on the track.:rock: :rock: :rock:
