Default Thinking of new pickup.

Trying to decide which to get - between Toyota, Ford, GMC. Toyota doesn't make a
diesel, but the question becomes, 'Why diesel'? The price of the truck is about
$8K more than the gasser. The diesels get better mileage, supposedly, but diesel
also costs more.

Any ideas out there?


$8,000 = 121 fill-ups for my gasser truck's 25 gallon tank at 22 gallons
per fill-up. This all translates into about 54,000 miles of driving the
truck.


That sounds like a lot, but I've already got over 60K on my 4Runner. It's a
2008. And, we've only just begun this camping stuff!

All decisions are the result of binary thinking.
