I have a friend at work with a Titan 06 v8 he always said it would out tow my F250 and get better miledge and I would rag back on him this whent back and forth for about 6 months.So one time I am going to take him and his wife camping with me and my better half,I suggest he tow the camper since his truck was so much better .Camper is a 29 ft aluminum frame trailer fully loaded weighs about 6300 pounds.First we hook it up and it squats the truck down within inches of the bump stops so we put on the load levelers and sway cams this brings the truck up about an 1.5 inches.So now we leave everything seem good until we hit the interstate anything over 55 and the thing would sway like mad even with the sway cams .So we set the cruise at 55 and head north we drive for about an 2 hours and its time to fill the tank already he was getting just over 5 mpg all the way up.The way home was no different except we had a head wind and now averaged 4.3 mpg.Needless to say he never tried to bust on my truck again. I can drive 85 with no sway and get 7.5 mpg or if i drive 65-70 I get 9 - 9.5 theese figures are while pulling the same trailer.Around town not towing I get about 12 but I am heavy footed.its a 5.4 gas engine truck.

Technically not real world fullsize, so when they say best in class for one thing or the other there are only 2 truck's in it's class, either toyo or nissan. Little misleading
