To add insult to injury, the emissions requirements of modern diesels kill the fuel economy. I’m glad I have a gasoline engine. I don’t drive long distances and tow heavy enough to justify the diesel. I do love the 48 gallon fuel tank I have in my truck.
That is not what I have personally seen with my families trucks. A 2020 Ram 350 gets 25+ mpg on the highway and recently got 14 mpg towing a loaded 24 foot box trailer at 80 mph…
