I have to agree with buickanddeere. Most of the diesel pickups around here are farmers/construction or kids that have to show off. Most of the kids hot rod the heck out of them so I'd be real reluctant to buy one of those. The farmer/construction use em hard. Again I'd be reluctant to buy one of those.
The average truck around here not owned by farmers/construction pulls a boat to the lake in the summer and snowmobile trailers in the winter and most don't get a whole lot of miles put on them. Considering how they are used by most people and miles driven I'd have to say in the long run gas will be cheaper to operate unless you are buying near new or new and driving it till it dies. If yer trading every four or five years between the higher price of diesel, maintanance and the price of buying the diesel truck you would, as an average driver be hard put to get the same miles per dollar figures that you would get with a gasser.
I have owned a diesel and yea I liked the heck out of it but I would not buy another. Just don't make sense to me for what I need.
