How do these things hold up to daily driving say 70mph for 120 miles daily. What could I expect my MPG to be? Will it be a ram 5.7 hemi?

They will hold up just as well as any other truck. If you are doing 70 the whole way with no hills or wind, I think you would see 15+ mpg after break-in.

I'd like to see a Raptor SuperCrew EcoBoost 3.5L with a 3:73 or 3:55 ratio, see how it does running to and from the four wheeling, or in our case into town and back up the mountain (70 mi RT).

Just recieved my supercrew two days ago. Had to wait four months, however it is here. I don't think it will ever see 15 mpg I say 11 and I'm o.k. with that.
