    I know what you mean Chevy. I just bought a 2011 P.U. that gets anywhere from 14-16 around here, maybe 19+or- if the planets are aligned just right when I'm out on a longer run. I too haul a trailer frequently so I need the towing power. Sometimes pulling the trailer with the old truck it was like the tail wagging the dog, and that truck didn't do any better mileage wise. I average about 20-25 gallons a week doing shop stuff. If prices get too far out of wack it might pay to buy a super duper mileage vehicle to drive for those trips where I don't need the towing power. But then I'd be maintaining an extra vehicle so I'd have to *put a pencil to that deal first.

    *put a pencil ~ Term used by old farts, pre-calculator/computer days when a pencil was used to do math problems.
