2010	4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed 390-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	The milleage was terrible , my friend made the same trip as I did with a similar equiped Ford 5.4 L , 4x4 and used 30 % less gas. I rented this truck for a 2 week hunting trip to test it befor buying a new one. I will buy another Ford or GMC. see full Dodge Ram 1500 review
2008	4dr Crew Cab 6.5ft bed 345-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed automatic RWD	That hemi drinks fuel... we live at 55-60 while towing and 10mpg is all we hope for... we get that on the flats with no headwind. If you get a hill with a headwind you are looking at 4mpg! Buyer beware! fuel is approaching 5 bucks! see full Dodge Ram 1500 review
2005	4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 345-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed automatic RWD	13 to 15 mpg in town about 17 mpg on the road. see full Dodge Ram 1500 review

2003	4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 345-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed automatic RWD	Not much I don't like about this truck, but MPG with a Hemi combined with heavy loads means 12-13 mpg consistently. Not sure newer trucks would do any better with my 1000 lb load in the back. Highway mileage is only 16-17 at best. see full Dodge Ram 1500 review
2003	4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 240-horsepower 4.7L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	I should have bought the Hemi 5.7L engine. The 4.7 is awful...gutless and I get about 13 mpg in a rural setting and can get about 15 in the highway. I drive very conservatively. see full Dodge Ram 1500 review

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Audi A8 / S8

Audi A8 / S8 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	Fuel economy might seem an odd, "why to buy" for such a large, powerful car. But this large powerful car manages EPA ratings of 18 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, each one mpg better than the superceded V8. In suburban driving the trip computer typically reported averages in the low 20s, but as high as 25.5. We're a long way from large luxury sedans that had trouble cracking 18. The BMW is rated a bit higher, 19/28, but this is close enough to call it a draw. If you want even better fuel economy, Audi how also offers a 240-horsepower diesel with EPA ratings of 24/36. But the TDI is only available with the long wheelbase and will also cost you another $3,700. BMW offers no comparable car on this side of the Atlantic. see full Audi A8 / S8 review

Audi A8 / S8 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2004	4dr Sedan, ext. 330-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	The Audi A8L is an interesting car if bought used. As it is a premium model, it is often bought on lease or by rich people. It is also all aluminium - when sold they are usually in great condition. The fuel economy is good for its size - about 12 miles a gallon city and 22 highway. For an 8 cylinder, all wheel drive performance car this is not bad. However high gas prices make it nota very economic choice for the gas version. With the introduction of the diesel version means used vehicles will come onto th eused market in about three years (2106). Fuel consumption will be better. see full Audi A8 / S8 review
