I wonder what your gear ratio is in the Rebel. Be sure and check that before you buy a new one. All our 3/4 and 1 ton Cummings get around 17-20-- except the 4500. 2012 crew cab 4x4. It gets 11 empty and 8 loaded. It's been tuned and deleted. But man will that thing pull! I been 50k gross weight and it 'll go faster than I want to!

The Rebel has a 3.92 gear ratio. All the other RAM 1500s are 3.21. Either way, I am nearly certain I am going back to a Diesel and will do a delete and tune like my last one. I had 35s - Nittos - on that truck, but will likely go with 33s on the new 2500.

Yep!--gear ratio makes a big difference in mileage! You gotta love the Cummings! I hope I am never without at least one or two! Pretty sad that your Cherokee probably gets better mileage than your new truck!

I was not a believer, but got this a few months ago. Basically, it improves the acceleration in 3 modes. However, for long trips on the highway in eco mode, I went from getting 13mpg in my 2014 Raptor to 17mpg, it's worth a try Pedal Commander - PC78 for Ram trucks (2019 and newer for 5th Gen. Trucks) Fits Body Style: 1500, 2500 | Throttle Response Controller with Bluetooth https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CMBWDN6/?tag=lrhmag19-20​

Was just looking at that for my Tahoe. Thanks for the detail.
