Well, apparrently I am an idiot. Back at the end of 04, I bought an 05 GMC Sierra, but the special edition with the aluminum block that gets 1-2 MPG fewer then the stock v-8, but produces about 25 more horses. It's fully loaded, and I love it, but it has AVERAGED me 14.4 mpg. I've thought about trading it in, but I love having a truck, and to get something that would replace it in my heart would cost like 40-50k.
What's even worse, I live about 1 mile from where I work, so I could walk to work (my wife could too), AND I have a motorcycle that gets a good 45-55 MPG. My wife makes me wear a helmet and it messes up my hair. So I still drive the truck.
