...it's fun to show how the cost advantage of a diesel went down the tubes when they doubled the cost of the diesel option since I purchaed my 2000 7.3 PSD and 2003 6.0 PSD and that diesel is now up to 85% more than gas at some stations.:B

The problem with that argument is many of us have excellent diesel tow vehicles who have realized a significant savings over the life of our trucks. It took me about 3½ years of fuel savings to pay for my diesel option and I now have a truck worth significantly more than the equivalent big block for trade-in or sale value. Even with the current cost of diesel fuel, it would be cheaper for me to drive this truck than the big block gasser I had previously and the gasser didn't do the job as well when towing heavy. Maybe if you put some variation to your argument, rather than spew the same tired rhetoric, you wouldn't look so much like a desperate troll.

But he IS desperate troll. I truly think he might be Supercharged posting under a different screen name.

Humor me again and say I should have kept my 2003 6.0 PSD Excursion AFTER the 5 year warranty ran out to carry 9-12 people and their luggage on long vacation trips to Florida etc. I know YOU think very highly of the 6.0 PSD.:B

Where have I said that? I will bet you $1,000,000,000 a day for 1,000,000,000 days at 1,000,000,000:1 odds you cannot show me anywhere I said that.

It's not my fault you bought the modern equivilant to the 350 Olds...you have to stop projecting your own shortcomings on others, and simply accept the fact you're just not too smart.
