Hahahah...Classic..gutless pig! You have me rollin' on the floor with laughter. I drove the V6 Desert Runner with the 5 speed. Yes, it had ok power, but the MPG absolutely sucked. I believe it was rated at 16 city/19 hwy. Jeez, some of the V8 full size trucks get the same MPG -some even better. I think the gearing contributed to the poor MPG -- the damn thing was revving around 3000 RPM at 60-65 mph in 5th. First and second gear just crawled...
Anyhow, the V6 isn't an option for me since I'm in Cali --the current gasoline prices are $1.80 -ish for regular and still climbing. So I have to have the 4 bangers...like my G20 and the Toyota truck. I'm getting 28-36 with the Infiniti G20 and 25-30 with the Toyota. I need good MPG and good power.
