Decided it was best to keep my 94 Dodge Cummins around the farm at 297,000 miles and just leave the bale spike on it all year around. Bought a 2015 Ford F-350 6.2L four wheel single seat pickup on 12-31-14. Very happy with it. I've gone to Colorado once, 7.2 mpg loaded (80 mph). Locally hauling steers to market 11 mpg (65 mph). Running to town with no trailer it gets 14-16 mpg (40-55 mph). I didn't want electronic injectors and DEF. My old Cummins got 22 loaded or empty until it got old, now it gets 18. When I bought the Cummins diesel was cheaper than gasoline. Within a couple of months they reversed position. After I bought the gasser they went back for a while. But the total fuel cost would never justify the additional cost of a diesel for no more miles than i drive now that I'm retired. And I'll never have a $10,000 injector replacement.
