Throw in that a new diesel is 5K more to begin with and I think it more than evens out!
With my V10 loaded headed down the hiway to Florence I get 8 - 10 MPG

How many gallons per mile do you get with that V-10 loaded 6- 8 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Sean, I have a 1 ton with the V10. More power than I could ask for. I don't care too much for diesels that's why I went with the gas. Also, with the diesels having to meet federal emission standards they are no longer a 500,000 mile motor. That is the reason they have more horse power from a smaller CID. They have about the same mileage life span as a gas engine. This was told to me by a friend who is a diesel mechanic.
I know a lot of people are brand loyal on here, including me, but he told me he'd never own a Duramax.

I sure hope you heal up and get better quick [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
Good Luck
Hey Rod,
How are you liking your truck???
I think you have the gas motor though don't you????????
I'm so confused [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
I'm looking at both the Chevy and Ford 3/4 ton crewcabs, with the diesel motors.
There are things I like/dislike about both [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
Would like to get one this week, but not sure which one........
Anybody have any good/bad thoughts/experiences with either..............
Thanks a Bunch

8-10 at 2.89 a gal vs 14-15 at 2.98 I'll take 14 to 15 MPG loaded and as good as 22 MPG unloaded [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
Why buy new?? I buy used wholesale from Rallye Auto, I paid 12,900 for my PSD, it sold for over 30 grand new. There's no way I would ever pay that for a rig when I can get a good used one for half or less and it will go for 300,000 plus miles [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]
Someone has to buy them gas pots though[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
I'm just funning with you Rod, there's pro's and cons to both. I used to say I would never own a Diesel but once I started hauling the Race car trailers and the big 5th wheel with a Diesel I'd never go back. Gotta love that torque[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
But the cost of gas or diesel now a days just plain sucks[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
