I'm not sure how high the milage will get as I'm only at a low 107k miles. The only engine issue has been a dead injector (dead closed) at 97k. Original fuel pumps, tires at 56k I think, busted HVAC Recirc door (twice), replaced front pads and front outboard U-Joints.

Current issue is with dash lights. I replace one and another goes out when I turn on the lights. I'm on my 4th burnt out bulb.

Last tank, 660 miles 31.5 Gallons + 8oz Stanadyne. Overhead reads 25% high, actual is closer to 21 MPG. 75% of that is highway between 65-70 and trying to keep boost below 10# but I do have fun at times.

You could go to http://dodgeram.info/tsb/index.html and check out the TSBs on various years. Good luck on your search.
