I believe there times were somewhat off! A stock SS will run a low to mid 15 depending on driver, the hemi reg. cabs have been running low to mid 15's at a substantially lower pricetag and the L's run mid 13's to high 13's with some low 13's and low 14's in the mix. Looking at the brands I would say the SS is very overpriced for what you get, the L I am partial to because I own one, and the Dodge is the best bang for the buck. Take into account I owned an R/T for 3 years before the L.
