2001 ram 1500 4 x 4  4 door  5.2 litre
I was looking at selling my motorcycle or trade for a partial deal on truck....A guy offered this up......How bad is the GAs mileage...
15 MPG?
18MPG?
Less?
I just want it as a second vehicle and would not be my daily driver at all........but just curious how thirsty they are.
It is in very nice condition 170,000 km and has a New tranny, brakes, shocks, exhaust tires etc...
Thanks

I had an 01 extra cab 4x4 with a 5.9. Expect 13 to 15 mpg. 13 if you drive normally, 15 if you granny drive it. Not much difference city or highway.

Was it a decent truck?
Thanks!

I loved the truck. Trans went out at 65,000, torque converter failure, $2400 repair. I eventually traded it for a Caliber when gas went to $4.00 a gallon a few years ago.
