Depends on the truck, our Ram EcoDiesel gets better mileage(30mpg) than any of our Subarus ever did.

That said you see a lot of 3/4 ton daily drivers that only see a tow hitch one or two weekends out of the year.

Don't forget to adjust those mpg figures by ~13% for the higher energy density (and CO2 emissions) for diesel vs gasoline. So 30mpg diesel is ~ like 26.5 mpg gasoline.
