Do you really think someone who is paying $55k-$80k for a vehicle gives a damn about gas mileage? Probably not unless they are one of those super green vegan liberal types, who already own a Prius, because if they can afford an $80k vehicle, keeping the gas tank full is like pocket change to them.
"I would love to buy this $75,000 Escalade, but I don't think I could afford the $4,000 in estimated fuel costs per year." Said no one.... ever.

An old school teacher of mine, Ed Goodson, also a former pro baseball player, was all set to buy a brand new huge Toyota Tacoma pickup but didn't. Why? Rising gas prices.

Would be better if it wasn't an automatic and was 4wd
I love those wheels, my favorite off the 25/3500 lineup.

That just shows he is financially responsible, not that he can't afford it. He probably has no use for a truck in any event.... he pays other folks to do that kind of thing.

That truck is like barely 20 mi from me. I've actually seen it driving around my city.
