I have also noticed a large drop in fuel mileage. I traded in a 2022 3500 High Country for a 2024 3500 High Country. I am hopeful once the engine breaks in that the mileage will improve; The 2022 did improve over time but it was not this drastic.
2022 - Highway speeds on level ground with 60,000 > miles on the truck would average 28-30MPG
2024 - Highway speeds on level ground with 5,000 < miles on the truck now averaging 15-17MPG
