Ben; I also drive an 04 chevy 1500 equiped identical to yours. standard cab, long box, bare bones, 4X4 work truck. I do have a gooseneck trailer that I pull, but probably haven't pulled it 500 miles this year yet. If I run short of power I just shift down and get there when I get there. I only checked it once on a day long drive without the trailer, and yes an amazing 20.5 MPG. Diesels are fine if you just like having a diesel or if you are hauling big loads day after day stacking up a quarter million miles before trade or salvage time. I just happened to notice when passing a truck stop yesterday Diesel was 2.09 and super unleaded was 1.89 Frank.
