You choose - loaded gas or basic diesel?
If you had to buy a SD/HD truck today, what would you choose... a loaded, leather gas model or a diesel with cloth and just a few basic gadgets? Assume similar price, which is what I am finding.

When you're stuck somewhere for a month because nobody can fix your diesel, that gasser will look pretty good. I can blow an engine or a tranny anywhere in this country and be back on the road in 36 hours for ~$3K. Read some of the horror stories here and on the Ford forums if you don't believe me. Ford will deny any claim, citing water in the fuel usually. Chip it, you are done regardless of brand. If you think they won't know or can't tell you are dreaming. I can pull the entire flash history of your truck in about 10 minutes. If I go back to diesel, it'll be a 5.9 Cummins. The Dmaxs are still too pricey, and as to Ford........Nah!
