    What does a person to do about bad gas mileage or a gas guzzler ? if you bought your SRT NEW you paid fuel guzzler tax upfront. I buy cars to enjoy, and I personally would not enjoy driving a cereal box and will not. I buy cars that I like, and gas is just a small price to pay to enjoy a car you like. I could not even tell you what gas is a gallon... pedal to the metal.

    I have the sxt 3.6. I usually hover around 20 mpg around town and 29 mph when I drove to Alabama and back. I’ve noticed better gas mileage since my brakes have been greased. I think that this is good, especially since I drive a little fast

    Good mileage. My 2009 SRT can't compare, but I didn't buy it for mileage. Its 6.1 Hemi only gets 13 mpg. in the city and 19 mpg. on the highway.

    Last year I averaged 25 mpg highway on 500 mile trip to FL. Averaged 26 on the way back in eco mode while time. Around town I average 14mpg. With my 6.4.

    I drove from Moorhead, MN to Stillwater, MN last year for the Mopars in the Park car show. It was 248 miles and I stopped once on the way. I set the cruise to 76mph and my supercharged v6 got 32mpg.

    My highway mileage improved after adding the supercharger. I think Ripp claims you'll get 1-4mpg more. I never check my in town mileage.
