I am still patting myself on the back for buying a gas dually. I needed a power house to pull the occasional bobcat, or mini escavator, and had my heart set on a big diesel, but after a lot of thought, I bought gas. Mostly for the cost of purchase, and the cost, and ease of maintanence. Hell, I built my 463 for about $1600.00. My buddy just paid that just for the computer on his cummins. I can pull anything, and still get 10 mpg loaded to the hilt. I get 12 unloaded. I dont do a lot of long hauling so that extra 5 mpg that I would have got for the diesel just would not have paid off for me.
I still get a little depressed when I am screaming along at 65 mph, at 3400 rpm and get passed by a diesel going 85, not even breaking a sweat, but I'll live with it.
