" but it costs so much more in fuel "
Not really. A few mpgs less than my half ton loaded down. Ive got one large project and 2 small projects going on( still plenty of room for end of the day garbage or more materials). One trip to the store instead of 2 or 3 and straight to the job with all my tools. Try and keep straight what tools to load and when. Then take a trip for a tool because the job schedule or scope changed or now you're doing something you had no idea was coming. Now the trip savings is a lot less fuel. The real savings? That'd be my time.
