By comparison, I had a 2005 Chevy Silverado crew cab 4x4 5.3 that got 16.8 and an 2011 Chevy Silverado(same) that averaged 16.2.


You're not gaining that much difference over a full size truck. Especially the Ford with the 5.0 or V6 ecoboost. For the person driving around 15,000 miles a year, the difference is only about $400 in gas at $3.50 a gallon. It boils down to what suites you the best.
