We dont have a 5ver, but we did half a half ton expedtion and gas milege was anywhere from 6 to 8 mpg towing 8000lbs and it struggled up hills, dealer also told us 1/2 ton would be fine, we too could not afford a new truck, we opted to trade even with a private party for a 2002 xcursion v10, now we get 8+ mpg, and could not be happier, good luck on your choice, but the main thing is, enjoy your rig and happy camping!!!
