Yep. I think that I would to take a beating if I traded my 2007 Hemi Quad Cab and so will the folks who have Tundras -- at least for a while. I plan to hang on to my Ram for a while even at the high price of gas. I most certainly don't like paying $4.00+ per gallon, but I can afford to. There are lots of other folks like me. Heck, I bought an Olds 455 cubic inch monster in 1973 -- the year of the first energy crisis. I made it through that one and I'll make it through this one. I seem to have a thing about big a-- American V-8's. Nothing seems to match them.
I took a recent trip in my Ram and got about 16 mpg driving at 70-75 mph on the interstate. I usually get about 15 mpg for all-around driving. Not a heck of a lot different than a V-6 Tacoma. (My wife's 4 cylinder Tacoma 4X4 only gets 20-21 mpg.)
My Ram is paid for. I most certainly am not going to take a beating on trading now to save not a whole heck of a lot on gas.
The best way to save bucks -- drive less.
