I run a 2015 Ecodiesel with great success.

However I'm wanting a Tundra, but I'm scared of the mpg. I'll probably end up with a 3/4 ton Mega Cab 6.7cummins.

That's what I have. I'm 6'7" so I don't need the lift. 4x4 on a steep wet ramp with a track unit is nice once in a while. Only a few ramps are that steep and my home lake is. The longer boats with bigger engines are tough to pull out. When its busy the ramp is wet along way up the hill. That 4x4 is a pain to buy and a gas mileage hit that one should use unless you must. I live in the country and we need it to get out at times. The 250 rides much better than my 350. The 250 is a little over kill for a bass boat because a 150 gas will pull it just not as well. I have all three and like the 250 better. They all will work and so will a chevy. Boats don't buck much wind like a tall load on a trailer will. They slip through the air good and that is why the 150 can get it done. Good luck.

I had a 7.3 before that and several times I would be hauling my toyhauler 70 on the highway and it would just die... That's a scary feeling the first time that happens for sure!!!! Luckily I could pop it in n and it would fire back up.... Anyway, great looking truck, wish I still had mine!!!

I already own mine. 20mpg pulling a bass boat in my Ram Ecodiesel. Not another truck I know of that can claim that. Extremely comfortable ride, great interior, great looking, and 440 ft-lbs of torque. Love the interior layout, the radio/media system, and pretty much everything about the truck.
