    Are you comparing apples to apples? Are both 4X4 with autos? If you are comparing a 4X2 to a 4X4 then the difference is substantial.

    My only guess would be that it takes more energy to move the extra 200LBS from a dead start.

    Yeah, seems as good an answer as any. Just seems like 200 lbs wouldn't make that much difference. Thanks though.

    When I bought my first new car, a 1974 pinto, the car salesman told me every 100 lbs. of extra weight costs you one mpg. And everybody on the internet knows that car salesman never lie.
