[RC] Gas vs Diesel Trucks - Jerry & Susan MilamI'm starting to look at a replacement vehicle for my 95' 5.9L Dodge Ram 1500 that has 101,000 miles cause I'm either gonna need to paint it soon, get a new bumper cause rust has started eating my chrome and get a new exhaust system. The engine is still doing fine for the terrain I travel in mostly, but it does labor when we come to some steeper grades we have in the midwest. I haul a 3HS 28ft 4800lb unloaded Kiefer Built; up to 8000 loaded. It really does tax the vehicle occasionally. So the question is, do I nickel and dime the vehicle I currently have or drop more bucks for a newer, more powerful engine. Then the question is, Gas or Diesel? Which is best and why?
