Thats fine. I drive the same amount as you maybe a little more. I get '4.0 mileage' and I deal with. It's a truck, it's what I want to drive. So many people buy a truck and then whine about gas mileage(not saying you do), It's a truck, it's bad on gas. If gas mileage is necessary, then buy a hybrid. Or honda, or any 4 banger for that matter.

I'm not b!tching. It's just sad that bigger trucks get the same and sometimes better MPG.

I agree. My 4.0 is rated basically the same MPG as both v8 f150's. It is pathetic.
