BIG difference between a F350 and a Tundra. He probably would not have been happy with a F150 or C1500 either. MPG really varies on trucks as most of us have different driving styles, probably a larger factor than the actual truck. Check out the diesel forums, pretty big range of MPG on same brand trucks. I see a lot of guys dumping a lot of fuel as they charge off the line at a Stop Light..... I heard the best way to increase MPG is to keep the RPMs down... Pretty good point, I thougt.

The new Silverados and the Tundras both get decent mileage for a truck. They keep getting better as Technology increases. The new Tundras and the new Chev/GMCs are great for truck fans. As I said before any improvements by any of the players makes the others work harder.
