cost
I just wanted to say i dont care how much fuel costs, the best part of my day is in the morning when i start the cummins up and drive to work, and in the afternoon, sometimes at night, getting in my truck and firing up that oh so sweet sounding cummins. I drive carelessly both ways, smoke pouring, turbo spooled, egt's maxed. My truck is what gets me out of bed every morning. Well that and im married.

I have pretty much parked mine also. I have drove it 2k miles all year I think. I ride the bike most of the time or drive the GTO. The GTO isn't a gas miser but it is cheaper than the truck.

It's what I drive when I leave town... I still use the truck for work and well... to get the groceries! The Eclipse is just better on the highway turnin' cheaper miles!
Where I was spending 700$ a month on fuel for the truck now I spend about 150$ and have a 400$ payment and insurance on the car and about 100$ on fuel for it... so I come out 50$ ahead and have 2 vehicles!
It works out for me...
BUT THIS IS STILL MY BABY!!!!
