Diesel vs gas......................

I have to say these types of threads are entertaining. Here are some numbers for you to chew on. Based on identical fleet owned trucks at 100,000 miles. 3/4 chevys with 6.0 gas. Average mps 12 equals 8333.33 gallon. Times price per gallon today at my local station of $3.15 equals 26249.99. Same truck with duramax diesel 15.2 mpg with fuel prices locally at 4.10. equals 26973.68. Now thats 723.69 higher just for the diesel. And then the upfront cost which is a wash because when you sell it you dont get it all back. Yes you get some but not all. If you do your one of the lucky ones. Now I know the diesel side is going to say I get 20 mpg. Good for you! I did this back in the day of driving a diesel dodge and not actually using the truck for work. But in the real work world our fleet of over 30 mixed dodge, chevy and ford trucks only the dodge gets over 15 occasionally. The ford and chevy is usually around 15 or lower.Yes you can extend the service on a diesel but when you compare $23 oil changes to $75 you have to really stretch it. Thats a $1040 dollar difference. Im not trying to bash anyone or cut down the numbers they put out there but this is what I have seen operating our fleet of over 350 units. Oh and what do I own a diesel chevy. I also have oil changed at 5000 miles on all pickups. And I watch fuel since our monthly bill is over $55000.00
