RE: Real Gas Mileage with automatic - 7/19/2006 1:07:09 PM    ktoliver   Posts: 16 Joined: 7/12/2006 Status: offline I agree. I can get 14 with my 5.7 Hemi Ram1500 if I keep my foot out of the tank. These types of posts give me a lot of concern. _____________________________ 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7Hemi Magnum (in reply to mahal3680) Post #: 24

If it indeed is only getting 16 mpg, I'd take it back. _____________________________ 2004 Harley Davidson XL Sportster 2001 Dakota Sport 2007 Caliber R/T Harley Davidson Forums Moderator http://www.hdforums.com/ (in reply to mahal3680) Post #: 25

RE: Real Gas Mileage with automatic - 7/19/2006 1:20:20 PM    ktoliver   Posts: 16 Joined: 7/12/2006 Status: offline Hmmm...I don't think that is possible. If my math is correct 1 liter = .26 gallons. Therefore 16MPL in gallons would equate to 16 divided by .26 = over 61MPG. Did I get that wrong? _____________________________ 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7Hemi Magnum (in reply to TUNDRA_schumacher) Post #: 26

At 115 miles per hour I believe the EPA mileage estimates would probably not apply! _____________________________ 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7Hemi Magnum (in reply to KimBo K.) Post #: 29

RE: Real Gas Mileage with automatic - 7/25/2006 4:05:22 PM    shelbyzman   Posts: 52 Joined: 6/16/2006 Status: offline Don't get me wrong, I'm a big Mopar fan (all I drive are dodges) but the way dodge has advertised the Calibers gas mileage is a crock! Like I mentioned in an earlier post. my brother has one and he took to dodge because he is only getting 22-23 highway mpgs,( it has around 3000miles on it) Dodge did a "test" on it an said that it is getting nearly 40mpg. Wow this is better than what they have even advertised! Bull CRAP! I am avid dodge fan, but I am not so much a dodge dealer fan. It's all about $$$, who cares about anything else. Whatever. I really think that the Caliber is a really cool vehicle, but has been falsely advertised. (in reply to floorslayer1) Post #: 30
