The good side and the other side. I would drive this more but at $3.10 a gallon for gas and 10mpg average it makes more since to drive the FORD Travis

Re: Diesel prices
Yah fuel prices are 3.49 around here. I cant figure it out, except that PA has the highest fuel tax with NY 2nd. When I sold my Pete triaxle over 2 years ago Fuel was 4.95 a gallon, ouch!! It cost me about 600.00 dollars to fill up every day and a half. On a good note, this was the time to buy a diesel pickup! My dad and myself both bought newer trucks, that now are worth more than when we bought them It sucks that diesel is more than gas. Less refined should= cheaper??

Re: Diesel prices
I chalk it up to demand. There are many out on the road right now, somewhere between here and home, trying to get back from the holidays. And as long as there is fuel, and it's needed, PPL will pay going rate. Absolutely no justification for the increase, other than they can. They've got us by the short curlys, and they know it.

Re: Diesel prices
Ha Ha Rogue Yeah I know I did not make this the most fuel efficient I have to say I had missed my 2001 truck that was setup like this one with a 7.3 I never thought it was a good move for ford to stop the 7.3, anyways I rolled the dice on the 6.7 and I have to say it is a step above the 7.3. The power and torque is better from my stock 6.7 than my 7.3 that was chipped, exhuast, cold air instake and and modded turbo. Have 12,000 miles on it now and knock on wood all is good so far.

Re: Diesel prices
Rick it's running around $3.30 here.
Since we are showing are rides. Here is my daily driver. My 2000 F250 7.3L with 6" skyjacker lift, Edge w/Attitude chip. I get 15 mpg running this in city traffic. probably get more out of it but there is an over abundance of dodge trucks around here that have drivers that just can't learn that they are driving slow pieces of junk.. here is the truck when I got it. I got this truck for a smokin hot deal. ZERO ZIP NAHDA FREE And here it is now. And at night with the summer family activity behind it. The trailer with both cars on it weighs 13,000# and I get 14 MPG pulling it. Notice the mirrors, I like LED's. -Mike
