Well one would think that a 1/2 ton domestic quad cab gasser would be made of steel but you are correct. The entire grill that they advertise on tv about how tough the truck is with a robot smashing it in vain, is made entirely of plastic. So you do have a point.
That's blatantly false advertising....very dishonest.
(actually, in fairness, the stoatmobile gets around 14-16 mpg in the city, and it has a full 1-ton Super Duty chassis...I feel 'somewhat' safe in it)
So you are really getting that good a mileage eh ?
When it's unloaded, yes. About the worst I've ever gotten with it is 12 mpg. It has the 7.3L turbo diesel, and there aren't many hills nearby.
Of course your around town and my around town might be different towns. When I upgrade at some point I either want to go diesel or else hopefully the 3/4 tons will have E85 gassers. I can either run the biodiesel I see at some of these pumps or else the E85. I don't care how much less effecient it is as long as I can piss off a shiek by using it. ;-)
That's always a good plan :-)

Of course one might wonder how we got on this topic on a thread thats all about beatiful young and potentially loose women with toy guns..........
It doesn't bother me...I've never been a "stay on topic!" fascist :-) I figure that people come here in order to talk and have a good time, and I don't like to place more restrictions on things than the huge number of restrictions that already exist :-)
I mean Miss Kitty wasn't exactly well
(be still, my beating heart)
anyway back to your regularly scheduled programming.
