Re: Diesel vs gas......................
No, I haven't read all the posts. I will eventually but, for now, it's just too much information taking up too much time. I will be buying a new vehicle in the next few months and I've been planning on a diesel. But I'm really beginning to wonder if it's a wise choice given my circumstances. I have about 6 more years until retirement so I need a vehicle that can carry me back and forth to work (about 2 miles one way). That's a lot of short distance driving, especially for a diesel. My current towing is limited by time (as well as money) to long weekend trips and, at most, two weeks vacation a year. Our trailer is small but we intend to get a larger, heavier one in the next couple of years. A diesel is tempting, especially for the fuel economy and low end power. We love going out West and those mountains are kind of steep. But, given the cost of the diesel option and the use the truck will get other than as a tow vehicle, I'm beginning to think a Ford V10 might be a better choice.512Views0likes0Comments
