I can back up that mileage claim on the smaller Nissan truck.  I am elated,
nah, dancing like a little school girl if I ever see anything over 14 mpg on
the highway, with a tail wind, drafting 18-wheelers and coasting down hills.

Around town with the a/c on... fahgitabootit...

Andrei got better mileage in his F-250 loaded down with a steel trailer
hauling a car than I could ever hope to get out of my unloaded truck.

Well it is physically bigger but it gets better mileage than the small
truck, I average 19mpg combined highway and city in my 250.  My friend
reprogrammed his truck and averages 24mpg.
Or you can give ford another few months they should have the diesel F150
out.  It will be running an international 4.5l 6cyl, several people on
the diesel list have spotted test mules running around all over Detroit.
