4x4 Tundra ext cab 5.7 = 13/17mpg with 10,300 towing capacity right out of the box.

4x4 GMC ext cab 6.0 = 13/17 with 10,500 towing capacity with "max towing package". The next question is: Are 13/17 figures with 3:73 or 4:10 gears?

Anyway.... My point is that you cannot compare mileage with 5.3 and quote the towing capacity of a 6.0.

You need to keep it apples to apples to make a fair comparison.
