Somebody needs to tell mine that. But don't let facts get in the way of a good argument.

Just going by the massive numbers of EB owners who are disappointed in their mileage.. yeah it must be my imagination.

Suuuuure. But enough derailment. I just wanted to point out to you the the hemi is both more powerful and more efficient than the 5.0. Contrary to your claim.

I already told you I forgot about the 8 speed and stand corrected.

I'm sorry. What did the Ecoboost have to do with this discussion? Are you feeling insecure in your choice of engine. I'm quite happy that my Ecoboost gets both good mileage and has power to spare. I don't really give a crap about random Internet chatter.

You claimed, wrongly, that the hemi is <<<<<<<< mpg than the 5.0. All I did was point out the truth. I'm sorry you can't handle that and decided to deflect.

Rocket, good luck with the new rig it's a beauty. My fishing partner only owns Dodge/Ram trucks and absolutely loves them. The latest truck he owns is a couple of years old and other than some front-end issues it has had no major problems. I don't know a lot about the Ram line so I'm not sure what trim level it is but rides real nice and has plenty of power.

My tunned 6.7 powerstroke has more power than your Hemi and eco combined so suck it, haha! Well maybe not quite, but close!
