i only drive 3 or 4 miles to work at the max. Sometimes thats all the drivin the truck sees till the weekend.

oh well, i prolly dont need a diesel either, but i dont think i could go back to gas now.


I can't blame ya tho, with fuel prices and all. Just make sure its really want you wanna do before you do it, and that you dont have any regrets!


You mind if i ask how much there willing to give you for your truck?(i assume your trading it in)

Because i'm having no luck selling mine, so i'm considering trading it in if i can find a dealership that has the truck i want. (i'm actually going bigger. gettin a dually PSD more then likely. haha. prolly not a smart move, but oh well!)

Off the dealer lots, yeah, there selling just fine!

But privately, yeah, nobody's buying i dont guess. Or at least they aren't buying my truck.


I guess its because they can get financed easier through a dealer.

Oh well.


I can understand i guess somewhat everyone not wanting to buy because of the price of diesel fuel. I'd personally am going to continue to drive a diesel, because thats what i want and enjoy, and i'm not going to let the gov., all the hippies who wont let us drill in the states or open more refineries, and the big oil companies ruin my fun and freedom! If i have to make sacrafices with other things, then so be it, because i'm gonna drive what i want, where i want.


Plus i know that if i got rid of the diesel, and got a gas half/ton, that would be right about the time diesel drops wayy back down to what it should be, and gas would shoot up.

well bud, you have to do what you have to do. i had thought about selling mine, but what good would it do. i would be back in a stock gasser, and unhappy. i just dont drive as much so thats how i deal with hte high prices. Good luck with your decision.
