In 1990 my dad bought a new Chevy 2500 (6 lug light duty) extended cab 2WD with a 350 automatic. In 1991 my uncle bought a new Toyota X-tra cab 4x4 with a V6 and a 5 speed. My dads Chevy got 17 on the highway... my uncles Toyota got 16 on the highway. The Chevy had tons more power and didn't have to drop a gear to pull a hill.
BTW - My 4x4 Avalanche gets 16 on the highway.... and I drive like an A-hole. It would probably get 18 if I kept my foot out of it and drove the speed limit.
