Motor/Engine

Oh boy, ya, a motor derives it's enegry from a remote source e.g.
electric power plant. An engine makes it's own power e.g. Duramax. Then ya got yer common motorcycle .

Ya gotta admit motorcycle sounds better than enginecycle.
The original Indians were actually called motocycles.

back to the oringinal question...

We have a 2005 Colorado. It has the inline 5 cyl. It is very peppy, has gobbs of torque down low and got me about 24 mpg @ 85mph going from Los Angeles to Kingsburg, CA. (over the grapevine)

I saw one the other day pulling what looked to be about a 27' travel trailer. It squatted a bit due to lack of proper setup but seemed to be doing a good job. Not sure about the hills though.
