I think the two things negatively affecting fuel economy have been the customer's thirst for power and all the emissions crap. If engineers could tune the 6.4L the way they wanted to at pre-2003 emissions levels...we'd probably see 20-25 mpg EASY...maybe even closer to 30.
But some people in charge have decided it's better to use more fuel than less.
