What's the breaking point on driving your diesel

[MacDaddy67]

Paid $5.29 today...$24 per day...just to get to work and back home.....at 20 mpg

I remember when oil was $150 per bbl...and diesel was around $3.79 now its at $107 but it is $5-$6....hmmmmmmmmm

Don't have a diesel but have parked the pickup in favor of the wife's Toyota. 116 mi every day back and forth to work.

It ain't no fun. For the first time in my life I paid over $5 for a gallon of diesel. I also paid almost $200 for a half full basket of groceries at Sam's, including $12 for two cartons of eggs. Can't do anything but grin and bear it.

My breaking point was many years ago when I figured out that diesels cost too much to buy, and cost too much to maintain. Probably two thirds of the guys that own one don’t need it. But it is America, (for now), so carry on !

Most gasoline truck engine owners, probably 2/3rds don’t realize they dont need one and could do just fine with a sedan or compact car.

Funny!

But now it's 10% added for the big guy.

The reality of it is that most people need a diesel. Gasoline trucks just don’t cut it and can you believe people still drive half ton trucks? With the cost of eating out sky high grocery store hauls are getting bigger and happening more often!

LMAO Facts

Maybe all the big diesel concrete crushers will rethink that idea

on another note...if you have a daily driver and didn't have to buy diesel fuel atm-the diesel truck market is going to look really good here by the years end!
I bought a less than year old dodge mega laramie (with 20k miles) for $28 k when obama went into office and our country was on its knees-the sticker price paperwork was in the glove box still. It was listed at 72K earlier that year. I drove that truck 10 years and the ford dealership bought it from me for $28 k ten years later when I traded it in for a new king ranch. I'll be watching barely used diesel truck prices again soon...

It wasn't diesel but I saw a pump with .74 worth of gas pumped yesterday.

Probably someone trying to top off at a station that has a dollar amount where the pump stops.

I try to avoid them, but just the dumbest thing to have a max on fuel when its this high.

It’s all I had


My Breaking point was when my diesel truck ate a piston…

I was in line behind a guy at the corner store. He bought 4 packs of cigs, some energy drinks, and $3 worth of gas. Guessing he just had to go around the corner.

This was right down the road from where I was raised up in Grangerland.
