I had a 4 door Ram truck as a rental on one of my business trips. It had the 4.7 engine in it. I was quite surprised at how much power and torque it had and how surprisingly good the fuel economy was. I think I got right at 24mpg for the whole trip. Calculated by me and also confirmed on the dash read-out.

Those engines "feel" more powerful than they are on paper, because they make a lot of torque down low in the RPM range. I remember watching a TV show where a guy was swapping a 4.7 into a Jeep and he said it was a great off-roading motor because of the low end torque.
