They still have not figured out your seat problem? You hvae had that for a while, must be driving you absolutely nuts. Although, when you are driving that far, it can be used to help keep you awake, LOL.
It certainly helps you stay awake as there is no warning, it just moves!!!

Going back for service next week, so we will see what they can find.

At 60mph what rpm does your tach read?

I have about 6400 miles on my HEMI engine (3.92) and my weekly driving habits entail both highway and city driving (20 minute highway commute to a city area for work). When we first got the Aspen with 45 miles on it, it was barely yielding 11mpg. But now we get between 15 and 17 mpg. On a recent trip to upstate NY, we got about 19 mpg on average. I wish it had a light on the display to tell us when we are in econ mode (4 cylinders running instead of 8) but I've been happy to see the average go up as the engine is broken in.

I will check the next time I am out. At 80 mph it is about 2100 rpm, but I don't know about 60 mph.

We have 10,000 miles on our Aspen and get 15-16 in town and 19.9 on our last road trip.

At 60 mph the tach is reading between 1800-1900 rpm. This is the HEMI engine with the 3.92 rear axle.

Yesterday they reflashed the computer responsible for the seats and memory. We will see what that does. It is so interrment that will may take a while. On our 3,000 mile trip we got about 30 instances of the seat moving. In my setting the seat moves up and back to the original position, in Susan's driving position it just drives her into the steering wheel and she has to manually reset the seat to her original position.
