Re: Diesel vs gas......................
For me, I just like the expression on peoples face when I tell them I get 8.5 MPG. OK, honestly the gas is the best choice for me right now. I do 5 year leases and my next one will most likely have to be a dually diesel. More time to take more frequent and longer trips. But the 8.1 allison goes way beyond my expectations in every way.People who group the 8.1 with other gas motors and pulling power, Just have plain not pulled 12000 lbs with it and are clueless. And that includes the v10, Which I owned a e350 and it was no comparison. come on guys, 100 cubes smaller and ten little pistons. Owning and operating a semi for six years, I still don't really want to go back to diesel. Living up north and daily driving it, I like Gas over diesel because Its nice and warm in the winter with a push of my remote start. Plus It sounds way cooler with 500 cubes and the allison. My previos truck was BB 3/4 suburban and It was a real work horse. Drove the wheels off of it pulling trailers its whole life. I think all of new smokers are great. I'm sure they will be even better when my lease is up in 4 years. Can't loose. Tim392Views0likes0Comments
