OMG - 4 mpg? And I thought 7 was bad with our 6.8L Gasser. Now getting 12 - 15 depending on terrain with our diesel.
Yeh, but fuel cost should be the same as diesel cost is 1/3 more here. Then add in the $5K to $7K additional option cost and that gasser fuel expense starts to look really good.
Naw, even with the increase in diesel fuel per gallon, with the increase in MPG, we save .25 a gallon overall.
Plus a diesel will out last a gas engine under heavy haul loads by 100,000s of miles. :)
