I'm not trying to piss anyone off, I was just trying to point out some of the things that bother me, like how noisy they are, it doesn't bother me.

The glow plug thing, the reason that bothers me, is if it is not taken care of (used truck) then ya, it takes a while for it to start, remember I worked at a dodge dealership, I saw many diesels come in, I had to wait 5 minutes for one of the wait to start lights to turn off... So, that's all I'm saying.

You guys pointed out bad things about gas engines, so I was pointing out bad things about diesel engines, every type of engine has it's pro's and con's... You guys all get really defensive over something really silly!

To tell you the truth, when I get back from my mission, I do want a Dodge Ram cummins, but I want one of the 600 ft pound torque engines (The new HD engine that came out this last year and is replacing the older cummins)

You guys don't get it, I'm not anti diesel, I'm just showing the other side of it.


No you are just a whiner

I've seen the other side of it. I've towed quite a bit with a similar truck to what this thread is talking about. We're all trying to save him from that experience.

the funny thing is, I bet almsot every person who owns a diesel also has owned a gas rig...I had a FI 460 F250...I wouldn;t trade my diesel for any gas rig...I have seen the "other side" and choose a diesel;)

If you want to save money to spend on the trailer and Jeep, get the diesel. Otherwise you'll pay a little less for a 1500 gasser, find out it sucks, sell it for a loss, and buy a diesel anyway. So many have been there before you...

I was on your side trying to give you first hand examples that gassers aren't so bad. These guys exaggerate a lot, telling me that a 5.9L can't pull shiz, and I was telling you it can, it would be "safer" and you could go "alot faster" in a diesel than in a gas rig, but what i was saying if money is your concern (which it is) the gasser will be fine, but... Hmmm..... Nevermind, it's not worth my time to try to help anyone out when everyone blows up on me.

Well, actually it is, I like seeing all these combacks, and lame threats. Yes, I did say silly to try and get some more things floating around! WOO HOO! :suka:

But then the ant ate the gram of wheat which then became some poo, and then hickey, james k, and sami started to lick it... WHAT??? :confused: I think I'm bored now!

yep, and not only that but look at the price of gas...diesel has gone up a little but not anything like gas has...before too long its going to be more economical to drive my PSD around than my wife's Jetta:eek:
