If I were buying a daily driver that I wanted to use for towing, it's towing ability would be my first priority and empty fuel economy would be second. 0-60 would be somewhere else down the list, very far down. I would need a truck that can tow. I would not need a truck that can do 0-60 in six seconds. As long as it could do a good job towing, I would much rather have a truck that could do 0-60 in eight seconds and got 25 MPG empty than one that could do 0-60 in six seconds and only got 20 MPG empty.
I agree, but I don't know of any 25 mpg tow vehicles. Meanwhile, my Ecoboost Max Tow does a good job of towing, gets pretty good economy, and just happens to provide good acceleration when desired.
