Thanks to the DPF, regardless of Make, we all seem to be suffering.
All of my buddies that are pulling similar size trailers with new trucks are seeing about the same mileage I am. The Dmax's seem to do about 1-2MPG better unloaded. Most likely because they are 1000lbs lighter.

I spent some time lurking on the Dodge and Dmax boards and the mileage they talk about does not seem much differant than the PSD's.
