Phil, I did the 4:00am thingy, and the 90 mile "each way" commute for many years, but, thank God, I got over that part of my life about 3 years ago.

That 90 miles each way would hurt too. Diesel is $3.29/gal.

For part of those years I had a 1999 F-350 with 7.3 and got diesel wholesale, about $.90 which is really cheap now, but then it was a lot of money. That F-350 got about 19mpg a little better mileage than my truck now does,

I'm afraid the days of a diesel getting 19 mpg is gone forever. Have you heard what the new 6.4 is getting, its like 14 mpg.

Was it a local move, or to another town? I hate moving, I used to move every couple of years when I was single. I got to be good at it, but I hated it!
