All that with 3.92 diffs (16" wheels) so you may have some MPG upside if you are willing to adjust driving habits.

I think it is hard to compare trucks from different manufactures - especially from different eras. Your truck has lower gears - but I think it has a 5 or 6 speed transmission vs. our 4-speeed autos and may have a more efficient final drive ratio.
