buickanddeere: Buy what ever you want to drive and I will buy what I want to drive. I own four Dodge diesel pickups. The oldest I bought brand new in 1990. I have kept it in good repair and had the body painted and repaired twice. It just turned over 469,000 miles and I think I will get many more out of it. It is a full one ton single wheel truck. It has had the heck ran out of it and it will still get 18-20 MPG running around town and throw a 14k trailer on it and it will still get 12 MPG. Try that with any brand of gas truck at that time. You would be on your second or third engine and the fuel cost would be double.
The gas trucks run real nice but you can't pass a gas station with them when pulling. My son has a Chevy 6.0 liter gas truck. It gets 12 MPG empty. Put the 14K trailer I was talking about on it and it gets 6-7 MPG. You can't afford to drive it.
There will still be diesel pickup trucks out there. The value of the used will go up and there will be conversions to put them in the newer bodies. So I would not get too excited all the talk.

As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
