[QUOTE="Great Asp, post: 11124852, member: 53322"] From the stat's it looks like you will ge the $7,000 upcharge for the diesel back, then it is just the cost of fuel and maintenance. I think the edge goes to the "have to" truck. I have pulled my trailer with the old Expedition (5.4) in Illinois and Indiana, no problem. But I bought my 6.0 when I knew I would be pulling to VIR and we planned some trips to Colorado. The 5.4 would have been over matched for those trips. Because we always have the service bodies on and tools (I think my guys carry too many tools :rolleyes:) it is a no brainer. Note: We now are faced with retiring our Econoline service bodies early because the Church of the Blue Oval is no longer making diesels in E-chassis... E [/QUOTE]
