Re: All about gas mileage now.
All really valid points so thanks for the info. I would drive a smaller truck if it suited my needs, but being 6'4 they get kinda cramped, and also are not practical for the work I do. {concrete}. I did have a nice 6 speed cummins dodge that gave me 20 mpg all day long but the current economy made me downsize nearly to riding a bicycle. So yes money is a concern as far as commuting at least 100 miles per day. I would slap a 250 strait six in without a second thought if i thought it would put me above the V8 mpg. mark. I could care less about high horses or a paticular sound. So what of it, you think a 6 banger with a 700r4 could be the way to go? Just so you know machine shop service of any type comes to me free as our family owns one. So building a new engine is alot cheaper for me then one would think. Any six cylinder guys care to chime in?
