  • How Gas Price is Affecting Pickup Trucks [View article]
    P.S. I've been driving domestic pickup trucks of various brands all my adult life, dating back to the mid-70's. Guess what? The full-size V-8 models still get exactly the same pathetic 12 mpg on average--if that--that I was getting 30 years ago (which ironically dates back closely to the first oil crises when Jimmy Carter was President).

    My point is we've had 30+ years to respond to this and have done nothing but up horsepower, acceleration, and creature comforts (read add weight). No mystery why Detroit will suffer mightily with each dollar ride in crude. Hemi-powered Ram anyone?
