Doing the MPG math on a new(er) truck
Greetings, Recently I was getting the 'itch' for getting a newer truck. My old Ford 1997 F250HD has served us well. We bought it in 2001 for $12K with ~92K miles on it and now it has ~124K miles. ...

I've done the same sort of calculation on switching from a V-10 gas truck to a diesel.
At 25K miles/year the break even is so far out that it exceeds the likely service life of the truck, and that's without considering the additional cost of maintaining the diesel.
But I still want one.
