What is a Ram 1500’s gas mileage like?

I’m an outdoorsman, going on camping and fishing trips any chance I get. I tow quite a bit of weight on these trips since I have my own boat and camper. My current truck gets the job done well enough, but I may upgrade to a more fuel-efficient pickup soon. What kind of mileage can I get with a newer Ram 1500?

You won’t find a much better pickup option than the 2022
Ram 1500
then. Not only did it earn a top 10/10 rating from Car and Driver, but the most efficient 2022 Ram 1500 hybrid engine also gets up to 22 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway.
Here’s a rundown of what mileage you can expect in other versions:
  • V6 engine: 16 mpg city, 23 mpg highway
  • V8 engine: 17 mpg city, 23 mpg highway
  • Diesel-powered: 22 mpg city, 32 mpg highway
The 2022 Ram 1500 comes in six different trims and several engine options, including hybrid and diesel engines. Both diesel and hybrid models get better gas mileage than the standard V6 or V8 engines. You’ll also get lower fuel economy if you’re towing heavier trailers, but the Ram 1500 can tow up to 12,750 pounds when it’s equipped properly.
