I have a 1999 dodge with the 24 valve and I get 22mpg gallon going back and forth from school and work, thats intown and on the highway combined but when I drive on the highway for an extended period of time I've gotten up to 25mpg.
I do run with a Edge Juice W/ Attitude though that helped a lot I used to get 22 max on highway and 18-19 combined highway and intown. I have a 5 speed manual.

Hi, I hava a 2007 Dodge 2500 w/5.9 auto. The only mod I have done is a S&B stage 2 intake. I only have 8000 miles on it and only getting 14.5 (Doing the math not going by the info center) That is mostly highway driving, around 100 miles per day. I did notice if I keep the RPM's below 2000 I get much better milage. The only problem with that is that around here traffic flows at about 75 and that puts me at 2400 RPM's. Well I hope that with more miles I see better milage.
