Default 4.7L gas mileage
What kind of mileage are you guys with the 4.7's? I found an '02 RCSB for a damn good deal and I'm thinking about getting it for my DD. This 9MPG I'm getting in mine is gonna get expensive this summer if gas gets high as everyone says it is. Just wondering if it's worth it or not?

well I'm currently averaging a steady 12.8 or 13.0, sometimes get on the gas a little (trying to get out from behind people eating crap while driving) and I will be down approximate 12.3, so all in all oveer 12 on average

I say if you can't get over 20MPG then it's not worth it. I say maybe put more attention into your current engine to maximize the economy. Maybe regear it.
