[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 501450, member: 412"] Dunno, I sold my diesel pickup. New gas pickup gets basically same/same MPG and will haul/tow anything I own, will rent, or borrow. I didn't go away from diesel due to the fuel pricing, it's the cost of maintenance and the potential for fuel headaches as the weather turns colder. I know I haven't pulled up to a gas or diesel pump to find the proper pump unable to fulfill my fuel requirement or desires. Gasoline from E85 to Ethanol-Free or all the ULSD diesel I had capacity to carry since I got my driver's permit in 1988. I haven't been in a true "gas-line" since I was in infant. Though the couple of times I pulled in to fill @ a CostCo to save a few pennies/Gal seemed close enough that I don't do that anymore. When I was in High School and regular gas was $1.19/Gal and I had a part-time job, that price didn't affect whether or not I decided to head out of town and wander gravel roads looking for places to hunt, shoot gophers, or just wandering for wandering's sake. Now that gas is $3.50-$4.00 for my pickup and $5-ish for the non-ethanol premium I use in the boat or ATV, yeah, nothing's changed, I'm still going to use them at will. [/QUOTE]
