I should've stated it this way: all things being equal, why not pick the truck with better fuel economy.
I never said anywhere that if all other things we equal, fuel economy wouldn't be the deciding factor. I said it's a distant priority, after many other things.
I just don't think most truck buyers, especially in the 2500+ segment, are shopping with fuel economy at the top of their priority list. It's in there, sure, just not at the top.
Good thing this is a thread about 1500+ segment trucks...
Also, I bet a lot of 2500+ segment trucks give it a lot of thought as a large percentage of those go into commercial service. If you are buying dozens of trucks and running them lots of miles, MPG savings is something they take serious.
