Diesel Trucks

I don't mind everybody's opinion, problem is categorizing diesel truck owners as rich guys with toys or coal rollers. I seriously doubt either one of you anti diesel guys have ever pulled a 30k goose-neck with your gas truck. Yet you say diesels are obsolete just because you don't need one. Then you say there broke down all the time...Please show me those facts.. I agree if you don't need one you don't need one but then again you could make that argument for a lot of things.

Again, I am not anti-diesel. Love me a 12 valve and have had one. I would not have a NEW diesel truck. Not only rich guys have them. I know a lot of hard working guys that use their trucks for work all the time. Just the vast majority of them are 12/24 valve cummins trucks or old 7.3 trucks. Because the average working man cannot drop thousands on repairs at the drop of a hat. I pull huge **** all the time. My 98 3/4 ton 4x4 v10 Ram pulls anything, and I mean anything I put behind it or drop on the gooseneck. Gets 12 unloaded and 9-10 pulling anything you want to hook it to. Again, I use it when I need it and do not drive it daily. Fuel pump went out last year, $150 bucks.
