[QUOTE="DirtMonkey, post: 510835, member: 2435"] If I got rid of my diesel, it wouldn't b e for a ¾ ton gas engine truck. You end up with the same truck, worse mileage & less grunt. If you tow a lot and heavy loads diesel is the answer. *most* people don’t really need a diesel for what they’re pulling…honestly, I fall into that category. I have considered selling my diesel and buying a new 1500 gasser. I only tow a 16ft trailer and a 3800lb rig. It would be nice to have a more practical rig that I could drive daily. I know this is a sign of getting old (and my man card could be revoked) sigh…but, my truck is lifted, loud, and set up for limited use –pulling and looking cool. Lol. I'm too practical, I want a truck that’s not so damn high I can’t reach into the bed and grab something without climbing up there, something with good visibility, nice ride, quiet (except the stereo) wouldn’t mind a sunroof either :woot: OK, sorry for that rant. Every time I start thinking like this, I remember that my diesel is paid for and has a new trans(the one thing that’s in the back of every diesel owners mind) and it’s a utility hot rod (a big clumsy hotrod) but still hard to part with…I have another daily driver or I think it would be gone by now… [/QUOTE]
