MPG results for 2006 Dodge 5.47 ltr Hemi

Our 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 LTR Hemi has been getting consistant results for over 6 mos now and we just recieved a new customer testimonial from a great guy in TX who has the exact same truck that states he is getting up to 25 MPG!!! We are currently putting together a customer page on our website and we will keep the results coming!!!

I love how the webiste has a link to a PDF of the IRS's form for a tax credit on hybrid vehicles. HHO mods do not count. That credit is for new vehicles factory equipped as hybrids or alternative fuels. Trying to get HHO to slide through may very well flag you for an audit.

CVCC= original lean burn
And he doesn't say how many mpg he is getting on HIS truck, just that someone else is supposedly getting 25 mpg.

That is an interesting point. Also, 25 MPG isn't that far of a stretch. The original highway rating of that vehicle was 19 MPG. That's only about a 25% improvement which can probably be done with responsible driving on the highway. My 98 sierra has a best tank of 23 MPG. My original highway rating was 17. That number is totally doable with no modification except driving style on the highway.

I like how you have to spend $800 for the cash back policy to apply.
