diesel was actually right at what i was paying per gallon even less at some stations before all the prices dropped some.

but my diesel reasoning is the fact that for what i want to spend on a crewcab its a high mileage gas motor which id be more concerned about than a higher mileage diesel motor. plus 3/4 cabs are bigger than 1/2 ton
You're lucky. Around here, diesel is $.25-.30 more than 87 octane.

I agree that a diesel would be a safer bet than a gasser in a high-mileage vehicle. And I guess you don't have to worry about cold weather starts either. :lol:

it is now about .20 more expensive a gallon but who knows when prices will go back up really.

im having a tough time finding good ones at dealers so i guess ill be seeing what the smaller dealers would do for taking a trade in

You're in a different market than I have always been in, so I'm kinda surprised that dealers/used car places don't have what you're looking for.

CraigsList is your friend! :D
