Sell/Trade 06 F250 diesel for 2006+ BMW 3 series

Been tossing this up and cant make up my mind...

Should I get rid of my 2006 F250 6.0 with 151,000 miles for a 2006+ BMW 3 series. (mid 80,000+)

My truck is been trouble free from day one of ownership.....(all stock)

The deal is that I do commercial cleaning on the side on top of my daytime corporate job and the fuel feeding (diesel) the F250 is killing me with the travel i must do.

I know you need a truck in every household but I could get a nice 3 series...

I also looked into getting a (hidden) trailer hitch from etrailer that are available for BMW 3 and 5 series along with an aluminum 6x10 Aluma utility trailer for household/atv needs.

What do you think....? It would be financially benefically as well...Not much but would be better than what I am doing now...

Here is one BMW that I am interested in...Plenty in this price range as well.

Thoughts...

2006 Used BMW 3 Series 325i 4dr Sdn RWD at United BMW Roswell Serving Atlanta, GA, IID 9477073

Keep the diesel, seriously.

There are control modules upon control modules in the E90 architecture. You cant even install a battery without resetting the car to recognize it.

You're better off leasing one.

If you want fuel economy and reliability with comfort, Hyundai or Lexus.
