I want a V8 option. I don't care about gas mileage. Give me a V8 that gets 6 in town and 8 highway and I will be happy

I think a V8 paired with a 8 speed transmission would be a just as good as our current drivetrain in the mileage department.
I owned a Lexus ISF, and with the 5.0 liter V8 and 8 speed transmission, I got 26MPG on the highway, and 18 MPG city! That's better than I currently get with my 5th gen T4R.
I wonder if there might be a few other differences between a slippery, low-slung RWD performance car that weighs under 4,000lbs and a high-riding 4wd truck that tips the scales at 4500lbs and has the aerodynamics of a block of wood that could account for the better MPG besides the engine and tranny? :laugh:
