Yes I agree I have a 1 ton dually crew cab chevy truck, however I dont drive it every day, some times not for months, only when I need a BIG truck.. its for towing our 30 foot trailer.
Also mine is a diesel and gets better mpg than a gasser too.. that big beast will pull down 22mpg not loaded.. better than some sedans today.. thats sad..
