I have a company truck so I don't need to purchase my own. That being said if I were to purchase my own it would be a 2500 with the 6.4 HEMI. You could probably put a new long block in a hemi truck for the cost of injectors in a diesel. Since the EPA has tried to get diesel trucks to shoot sunshine and rainbows out the tailpipe they just aren't any good.
My work truck is a 2016 Silverado 3500 with a Duramax, mixed driving it gets 12MPG completely empty. That is because once a tank it cleans the DPF filter and totally wrecks the mileage. It can take a tank from a 15mpg average to 10-12 when it does a regen to clean the DPF. That is the dumb stuff modern diesels do. Damn thats crappy mileage. If I got that I wouldn't be happy either. My 2018 Megacab Cummins gets almost 23 mpg highway (if I keep it 5 mph over the 70 mph speed limit). Cruising 80-85 I still got 21.8. My combined city and highway has always been almost 19 mpg.(18.7). Thats my calculations and it matched the computer. Now mine isn't a 4x4 since I don't need that. It's personal use and pulling my car hauler It cost me mid 41k and no its not the Tradesman.
Ok
