A lot of our customers ask us about how to maximize their RAM fuel efficiency when they buy or lease a truck. We love helping our customers get the most bang for their buck, especially when it comes to fuel. Here are some pro tips on how to improve your vehicle’s efficiency from the friendly experts at Freehold Dodge & RAM.

Maximizing Your RAM Fuel Efficiency with Preventive Maintenance

Outstanding RAM fuel efficiency doesn’t happen by accident. A big part of enhancing efficiency is keeping up with routine and preventive maintenance like oil changes, tire rotations, and wheel alignments. When your engine is full of fresh, clean oil and your tires have the firmest grip possible on the road, you’ll notice that you need fewer refueling stops.

Getting the Most Out of Every Mile With Good Driving Habits

There are also a few things you can do outside of service appointments to boost your RAM fuel efficiency. Here are some smart habits you can practice every day to get more mileage with less fuel:

  • Keep your tires inflated to the proper pressure
  • Try not to idle for too long
  • Drive smoothly, and avoid accelerating or braking suddenly when possible
  • Reduce the vehicle’s weight by removing gear or materials you don’t need every day

Keep in mind that towing and hauling heavy loads requires a lot of power, and therefore a lot of fuel. If you use your RAM vehicle to transport gear or job materials, you can anticipate reduced efficiency.
