LOL most of the mileage on those "working" trucks as you call them are without a load or trailer. A once or twice a month trip to the sale barn doesn't show a working truck. The cattle buyers work their trucks but they are at 3-4 sale barns a week. The guys delivering campers have working trucks. Lot of contractors have working trucks that haul some type of load 3-4days a week if not more. But most farm pickups haul a load less than one day a week on average. Having owned a diesel I won't own another. Just doesn't have the pay off. Guy I know crops about 1500 acres. Owns a diesel pickup. He also owns a gasser. The diesel sits in the shed except for when he is going to pull home a new implement or Sunday. His daily driver is the gasser. Some working truck! Another family here 1/2 farms (beef and grain) the other 1/2 is in earth moving. All of them are driving Ford Diesels. The farming side seldom work their trucks while the other side are always pulling small dozers and skid steers. The farming side sells enough beef at once that they have semi's coming in to get them and use big trucks for grain. So what is the point where a guy can honestly justify the extra expense of a diesel? I'm not against diesels. I don't really care if someone owns one. I just don't like someone saying something just to justify what they want. A simple "I like them" is good enough for me. Just fail to see the sense of em. Must be getting old. Sounding a lot like my dad about things like this.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
