Depends a lot on if you are purchasing or selling the truck how great the mileage is.
Mileage usually improves with the audience size or the amount of brews consummed while the story is told at Joes Bar.
Many of the great claims to mileage are made when looking at dash instrument instant mileage while cruising on level ground at 50 mph.
Some people calculate mileage by reading the fuel gauge and assume the tank is 50% full when the gauge reads 1/2 full. Not so folks.
Unless you drive 50,000+ miles a year or 35,000+ mile pulling a heavy trailer. Purchase a gasser.
