Recommended truck?

You looking for a pickup truck?
Fastenal sells their used heavy duty pickup trucks. I don't know the price. Check the website.

 

I'll sell you a beat up 1996 Dodge Cummins 2500 with a five speed that would make Fred Flintstone happy for $12k.

 

Trucks and fuel economy don't go together. If you just want a plain work truck as Chinatown said there are plenty of fleet vehicles out there to choose from.

 

No I won't.

My joke was a bit of levity, of course it would get better mileage than those you are looking at.

By the way not to be an **** but you do know this isn't a pickup forum?

 

If you think a pickup truck is gonna get 16 or 17 mpg combined, you will be sadly mistaken.

 

Naw, I thought I would throw that in later on.

By the way if you are not partial to gasoline engine trucks, my monthly list from Ryder for last December has some diesel gm pickups on the list, I haven't seen the last few lists since that one but they may be worth checking out. Also Richie brothers has them come up in their auctions, I get good mileage with diesels over the gassers.
