If I pulled in the mountains a lot I might think about the 6.0 but for everything else I'll stick to the V10

If the PSD is 5100 MSRP and the dealer takes of 10,000 bucks and he takes 10,000 bucks off the gas you are still 5100 higher. Where did you get your math?
Now around here the dealers are selling every PSD they get so they don't work to hard on the price but the V10's sell slower so you can buy them at dam near dead cost so the 5100 you started with is not 6 or 7 thousand.

I wasn't trying to say that you can get a new diesel for the price of a V10, I was just saying that if you pay invoice, you aren't paying $5100 for the diesel option.

I have a used car dealership so I don't buy new anymore, what you are talking about is a curtesy delivery and a dealer does not have to do it.
Right now around here you are not going to get as much off on a PSD as a V10, sure if you want to fight calling around the country you might save 500 or so but then to ship it will tag between 450 and 700 depending on where it is comming from so did you really save?
I bought my 2001 V10 crew cab eddie baure with 5000 miles on it and paid 21,000. I sold my PSD and was not really wanting another but figured I would look the best one I could find at the time had 15k miles and the I would have had to put 32 in it for the same basic truck. I figure 11 grand buys a bunch of gas!
IMO if you buy a new truck you are getting ripped off, what else can you buy and in 3 min. it is not worth what you paid? In fact it is a law in Louisiana now that you have to offer Gap insurance because the car are so over priced new that even the lenders were never getting their money out of them if they were wrecked.

The thing is no matter how you look at it if a rebate is on the V10 and the PSD then the price difference is still the same. If the dealer sells you both at cost the price difference is still the same. What ever he takes off one he can take of the other so 5100 bucks difference does not change.

6.0 diesel=no rebate
That is if I'm not mistaken.
