Unit gets between 12.1 and 13.1 mpg. Mine is well broken in (1st one delivered in Canada). Doesn't seem to matter how you drive it. 1/4 mile times are shit. This truck will never do a sub 14 sec. qtr., regardless of whose driving it. Do the math. 5000 lb truck, 500 ponies, just slightly stronger than a typical Pontiac Ram-Air daily driver. Where this really kicks ass is in the corners. I managed to give a modofied TT a run for its money on some very harsh and twisties this weekend.
Reason I joined. Does anyone have any idea where one can find engine mods that will give the beast the much needed extra ponies?
