Buy a Ford F250 Looks much better than the Chevy with the timbit sized wheels, usually no towing mirrors, locking tailgate or hitch. For some reason GM thinks these essentials should be options.

Nigels, what you may not realize is our good old boy Uncle Sam has his hand in the emissions department here in the good ole' U S of A. We have so much associated crapola on our vehicles; gas and now diesel too, and to make matters more challenging, we have this new clean burning diesel fuel that reaps havoc on the engines. Yes, diesel WOULD be cheaper to operate, if it wasn't for all of the beurocratic tampering!! Randy
