Diesels are serouis coin, a blip, a cough and it`s a few thousand $ before your on the road again. Alot more so than the gassers which are bad enough.

 

Thats why you get a good ford diesel, then you dont have to worry about putting coin into it for awhile

That or get a ford with a cummins in it, but thats a whole different topic haha

 

We know....

 

150,000 is nothing its a bit for an 02 of course its scary im creeping up 200,000 not yet but soon

 

What are you at now Dustin?

 

i don't need the extra expenses of a diesel...really can't afford them this early in the game. i think i'd take a 5.4 or V10 in a reg cab SD though. there's a few of them out there.

 

Theres not a whole lot of extra expensie with a diesel though. A little bit sure. But you have to have a use for it to justify it I suppose.

 

thats exactly right. right now i don't have enough cash to have one as a pleasure item and can't afford the extra expense of maintaining one... its on the backburner unless a deal comes that can't be passed.

 

You don't have to have a reason for it! I thought I did, but it turns out that I didn't.
I think I'll keep it anyway.

 

I dont really have a reason for mine either. i towed my small boat around with it, towed one heavy load of stuff from bc to sask, and made tons of trips to edmonton. Im not really utilizing the whole PSD but its still great to have.

 

Mine sits parked till summer on a salt free diet.

 

Mine is gonna eat the salt up, and get a new paint job in a few years haha.

 

Paint is bad enough but new body panels is the way that ends up.
I`ve noticed even more potash waste being used on the roads, it`s many thousand times worse than road salt.

 

Iam at 187,000kms which is nothing for this motor cause its been taken care of by me and previous owner just sad seeing it age so fast

 

It will be good for a long time yet cause you take good care of it.
