Milage ? 2010 3500 SRW

[rosebunch]

Hi all,
I have not been on the forums for quite some time. I had a 95 2500 4x4 Laramie XLT that was totaled a couple of years ago. I replaced it with a 2010 3500 crew cab SRW Laramie long bed 68Rf tr 4x4. I cannot believe the MPG difference. I get about 4 MPG less with the 2010 than I did with the 95. Is this normal? Is there anything I can do to improve mileage without voiding the warrante?

Yes, your mileage is normal. I went from a 04.5 to a 2012 and mileage decreased about 20%. But you also need to remember that you have significantly increased the HP and torque from the '95. It takes fuel to make power.
