ok.. pull 13,000to 25,000 lbs behind the truck and rerun the gas miledge equation. the gas truck gets 3.9 to 5 mpg.. the diesel gets 9 to 16mpg.. tell me who wins then. I have an older one and get 18.7 to 22 mpg empty but I dont run it empty very often when I have a car diesel that gets 37 to 53 mpg. I laugh all the way to the bank.

if you dont pull, it takes about 100k to break even on costs. if you do pull, it can take 25k to break even.

so all the bar flys and saturdays nites are dumping their toys and the real folks get to step in a take adavantage of the used market.
