Q: mine 5.9l slowly improved as i put more mileage on it. started out at 13 highway and im now up to about 17 highway if i keep my foot off of it. out here highway speeds are 75mph or so. id imagine the highway mpg listed on the sticker is based at 65mph. ambo wrote i have a 2003 dodge 1500 quad cab regular bed 2 wheel drive with the hemi. the sticker said 14mpg city 19 highway. i do mixed driving mostly city. i average about 13mpg below the stated city mpg. even on the highway i get about 16mpg at 65mph give or take. is this on par with what others are getting .

mark wrote whats the down side to having powertrax why dont vehicles have this designed in how much did it cost you yeah ron lots more info please! you recorded it all with your digital camera and are putting the pics up on a web site. right the powertrax web page says special gear and spring design reduce the backlash and therefore driveline windup. have you noticed any change in that compared to the stock setup .
