Think of how much $$$ you saved versus buying a diesel. That will buy a LOT of gasoline!!!
I know there's a little bit of debate about this, but when you actually pencil out all the numbers your total cost of ownership is typically lower with the diesel motor.
That's an argument for another thread. The OP has a nice truck and it sounds like he has plenty of engine for his needs. Some people aren't concerned with resale value. For people like that, its hard to ignore the $8000 +/- savings up front with an adequate gas engine.
