I keep reading "my wonderful 1990,1995, 2000 or 2005 diesel pickup. Those trucks 2005 and older are rusted through , even the 2000 trucks are rotten even if oiled. They are worn out and done for.
Last time I checked the calendar it was 2015 with more expensive diesel fuel, a $11,000 diesel option and 2015 emissions equipment.
If anybody hasn't noticed the glory days of the diesel pickup from 1989 to 2007 when the diesel was far superior , are long gone. In fact diesel advantages were declining in the 2000's when electronic controlled injection pumps and common rail injection was introduced.
You can thank the tofu eating green weenies in the EPA who can't stand the sight of a diesel stack blowing black soot under load. If the EPA had thier wish the public would have only electric vehicles.
If anybody hasn't noticed recently. Gassers don't have points, carburators, choke, heat rider valves and non lockup automatic transmissions. Quit living in the 1980's or earlier.
Pickup Gassers with port injection and now direct injection rival diesels in power, torque and fuel efficiency at a fraction of the cost and maintenance .
