If it's any consolation:

The automatic version of the Dodge Ram pickup, which gets 9 mpg in the city and 12 mpg on the highway, was the least fuel efficient vehicle in this year's survey. Luxury cars, including models from Bentley and Ferrari, completed the list of the 10 least fuel-efficient vehicles.

The Dodge Durango, which gets 12 mpg in the city and 15 mpg on the highway, had the worst fuel economy among SUVs.

The whole report is at:

I have just recently read in Consumer Reports pretty much the same thing, but they also went on to say that most window sticker MPG rating are greatly exaggerated!! Hummer isn't that bad after all!

Consumer reports noted that Jeep Liberty gets 11 MPG which was way under what the sticker stated. I found that shocking but yet delightful!

People just don't realize that the H2 is not the only low mpg vehicle.

Has anyone ever tried resetting the mpg readout on the DIC while going down the highway and it gives you a high readout like 20 mpg before it starts going down?
