The sheer size, weight, and heft of today’s trucks has challenged automakers in their efforts to improve the vehicles’ fuel economy. The biggest game-changer at the show is Ford’s beloved truck, the best-selling vehicle for the past 32 years. The 2015 model is significantly trimmer, thanks to the use of high-strength aluminum. That shaves 700 pounds off the truck and results in fuel economy numbers of 30 mph that will surely make it best in its class.
