Nah gas is cheaper than diesel and this thing pulls man. It spins the tires if I dont watch it. As a matter of fact, I need to replace the 2 rears pretty soon

Big truck, have fun filling that thing lol. Yeah diesel is more expensive but it's a lot more fuel efficient as well. Oh and pics of engine!

Yea, I wasn't trying to say you made a bad choice not buying a diesel, a guy I work worth has a 2500 with the V10.
