F-150 in 2020 gets about 23-25mpg highway depending on the model. +5mpg.
F-150 in 2010 gets about 18-20mpg highway. +2mpg.
F-150 in 2000 gets about 17-19mpg highway. +3mpg.
F-150 in 1990 gets about 14-17mpg highway.

The last decade saw as much increase in big truck fuel economy as the previous two decades COMBINED.


Yes, they are getting better mileage, but my point was that a lot of people don't really care about gas mileage.  If they did then they would not be using big SUVs or trucks as their daily drivers.
