I posted the same question last year. I ended up buying a f350 6.2 and 373 gears. The truck empty with me in the seat weighs 8,000lbs. If I had to do it over I would still buy the gas. Truck now has 50,000 miles on it and only time it has seen a dealer is when I had to drop the chevy diesel off for repair and picked up the driver. Diesel option is around $8,000 figured I could buy alot of gas for that. I get about 12.5 mpg and the truck has 900hrs of idle time. (use for portable office) I pull any trailer that our diesels pull and just as fast, so I laugh when everyone thinks you need a diesel to pull. (normally pull a 10,000lb trailer at 70-80 mph) BTY friend bought a diesel ford setup the same way and he gets 14mpg empty. The chevy diesels (total of 4 2008 and newer)have never been better than 14mpg I do not miss the fuel filter and $50 oil changes either.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
