Here's my 95 driver. Just rolled over 188k and even with 4:10s in it, it still knocks down 21mpg. LOVE this truck
Man those are some nice trucks sure beats my daily driver. But I only paid $2000 for it and I have put almost 90000 miles on it at an average of 22mpg

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

Default 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??

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.

So true Brian, 3 years ago, you couldn't give away a diesel powered rig, as prices were a penny or 2 from $5.00.. i weathered the storm, and have no regrets in doing it.
