@300mi/wk and 15mpg you'd save $200 a month if you went to 45 mpg (easy in most FE cars)

Thats pretty much what i figured too. So the money i would save goes away in car payment and insurance. thats keeping the truck.
although if i get rid of the truck i would be farther ahead, just in vehicle price paid 1k for the truck and could get 3k out of it.
