Drinking fuel faster than an alcoholic drinking booze.
Less RPMs, less fuel comsumption ! DAHHHHH !
That only applies to the engine itself. I'm willing to bet that my 3.0 in my ranger drinks less fuel at 4000 rpm than a 454 does at 2000 rpm.
More displacement allows for more components for the combustion. Which means it requires more fuel for a single cycle than a smaller engine.
At the same time it produces more torque and takes the truck to a bigger distance with less fuel.
