Comments for Top 10: Mileage Trucks »

Posted By pagey 1 year, 2 months ago in Business & Finance

Sport utility drivers arent the only guys getting squeezed by gas prices . Pickup owners are feeling it too. However, unlike the families abandoning their rigs for crossovers or cars, truck guys are a hardier bunch. Its going to take more than $4 or even $5 gas for them to cut and run. That doesnt mean the pickup segment is going to stand still and resist evolution either. The near-term is probably going to see smaller, more fuel-efficient rigs take the road. Consider Toyotas A-BAT hybrid concept, for example. So that might be the future, but what about now? Here are 09-model trucks with reasonably good mileage for their class. Think of these as mileage trucks: Theyre pickups for guys who want the image (or actually have a need for one) without going broke on fill-ups. For each, the listed EPA city/highway/combined figures reflect the most fuel-efficient engine/drivetrain combo available. Likewise, rank is based on combined mileage ; ties are broken by driving characteristics. The finalists, and their placements, may surprise you, so read on for the best mileage trucks on the road today.
