I wouldn't spends hundreds of dollars to save pennies. If you are driving the truck and not using it to full capabilities like hauling or towing most of the time, my suggestion would also be to purchase a small fuel efficient vehicle. I have a '99 Grand Am GT that gets about 28 mpg on the highway and has about 100,000 miles on it. This however doesn't work for everyone.

I also mow lawns on the side. Mowing one or two more lawns per week pays for the extra fuel costs. Then you can drive what you want and whenever. That is another method of justification!

Pop up your tire air pressure to the maximum recommended and consider changing to a road tire slightly higher in diameter and narrower. A slightly larger diameter tire gives you the equivalent of a slightly higher rear end ratio.
