Now while I know that now one would ever buy a 5.7L HEMI for fuel economy, I am curious as to whether or not your Chargers are getting better or worse mileage when compared to the EPA estimates.
There are threads like this on other LX platform forums but I thought it would be nice to have our own. This applies to all types of Charger owners from the SE all the way up to the higher end models...
As far as format goes please be sure to include the following:
-Engine type: 5.7L HEMI, 3.5L, etc...
-Current odometer reading (supposedly the HEMI loosens up a lot after a couple thousand miles)
-type of oil used (if you have already changed it, oil weight apparently affects MDS)
-what octane fuel do you use?
-rough percentage of city/high miles
-driving styles (pedal masher, occasional WOT, granny. etc...)
-and lastly your miles per gallon
