Anyone here with a 2.5?? I'm considering a GenII 2.5L as a daily driver... how are they on gas?

22 in the city?? Do you mean highway?? hmm... maybe I should be looking somewhere other that a truck for my daily driver...
According to the EPA results, the 3.9 isn't really a whole lot worse on gas than the 2.5... does that sound right?

The worst thing you could do would be buying another dakota (dispite the engine) for a daily driver.

The 3.9L motor is worce milage than the 4.7L.

The 2.5L will get 20-22mph in the CITY, and about 25 on the highway(IF you don't try and pass people all the time).

I suggest doing what the other guy said,... which would be getting a small little car with a tiny motor, and lay off the juice pedal.

Thanks guys, I think I'll go that route and just find a different car... I knew another dakota as a daily driver would be a bit of a stretch, I just wanted another dakota :biggthump
