    MPG Difference - R/T RWD vs R/T AWD?

    Anyone have any experience with both an R/T RWD and a R/T AWD in the same driving patterns?

    I'm wanting to get my wife a Magnum R/T AWD, but I see on the website it is only down by 1 mpg over the RWD.

    I'd be interested in knowing about an all highway average (~70mph), and then city driving...

    Thanks,
    Keith

    I think that 1 mpg is the concensus, although a SC premium gas tune on my rwd RT was worth about a mpg and the AWD is going to get better rear tire wear and possibly save you $ for snow tires?
