My bro in law has the same as your dad. Same issues constantly kept me away from diesel. ---

had this same truck, sans 8 spd, I’d get 19-20mpg on the highway… around town is a different story though…that Hemi has a lot of snot. > [@2TurboZ](#): > > I am pretty impressed with it so far. > > The MPGs are very good for the cold weather/city driving I have done so far.

My bro-in law has a 2013 3500 Diesel Laramie and I always liked the interior more than any other Truck I have been in. ---

8 spd with cylinder shut off and if I catch all the around town lights right I can get mid 20s on the dial. That all comes to an end when I have to stop and then the 8cyl kicks on and it drops down. I have been really monitoring my driving habits and have done 75-25 City/Highway and I am averaging 16.7 [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/my-new-rig/271747.md?page=1)
