Yeah yeah, I get the same stuff, I drive a 79 Chevy and 84 Chevy. And to upgrade would cost at least 10k for a pickup not much better shape than mine just newer. And that to gain what ? Maybe 3 miles to the gallon ? Best advice I got is, if it's a 4wd add lock outs, clean bed out and don't carry round anymore extra weight than nessecary, tools, chains etc. also maintain it well, tune ups, changing oil and tire pressures. Adding side boards to increase cargo area is a must as well, or getting a trailer, which costs fuel mileage wise but increases payload dramatically.
Btw for you nay Sayers on fuel mileage, the new ford ecoboast, I've seen several that only only average 14-15 according to the display on the dash.
