new and improved with better technology is supposed to offer us better engines that get better gas mileage but its like a conspiracy that they (all manufacturers) wont design a new truck that gets over 16-18mpg.

the mini trucks used to be the best selling trucks on the market but people wanted them to be just a little bigger so the beds had more room the 3ft x 5ft yet they went way too far and started building full sized trucks not even offering the mini trucks any more.

if I park my '98 Silverado next to a '14 Tacoma, other then body style there isn't more then 6" difference in size while the tundra would make my Silverado look like a mid sized truck


so, to the auto manufacturers out there: I ONLY WANT TO BUY A FULL SIZED 30MPG TRUCK SO MAKE THE DARN THING ALREADY


I think they don't make them because they falsely believe all we want to buy is big oversized monster trucks that can haul as much weight as an 18 wheeler and while there certainly is a very popular market for that, they need to offer a better fuel economy mid sized truck as an alternative to it.
