I have a ford escape 4cyl. and put it on the roof. I like having the interior space secured so I don't worry about thieves and cable lock the boat to the roof when I leave the boat for a while. The new escapes with a turbo get about 30 mpg and the roof rack is stronger than my 2011 which I had to reinforce. I used to get 25 mpg when I lived in Ma but for some reason I'm only getting 20 now. I have driven the new one and it felt more powerful. Also, my awd has never slipped even a bit on snow, sand or mud so I have very little worry about bringing it anywhere as long as I'm careful about ground clearance. I also used to have an f250 as well as 93 and 99 grand cherokees that I used to offroad a good amount so I know good 4wheel drive when I feel it.

Brandon,

Don't get your panties in a bunch.

It is very u likely that a full size truck with Quad cab , oversize tires gets any kind of decent gas mirage. Common sense.

Now, IF you spent a crap load of money to try to make your crappy gas guzzler a little less crappy of a gas guzzler....good for you.

The point ( in general....overall....usually) for George was that a little pickup truck may be his answer. Not a full size one like he already has.

Relax bro.
