I keep my eye out for a diesel tow wagon that fits my budget. I've noticed lately in my area a rash of tow wagons brought in "from out west" with below list pricing. Did something out west ( like a flood )toast a bunch of vehicles to watch out for?
Don't know how much of a factor it is - but here in So. Cal. fuel prices are among the highest in the nation (at least here in San Diego). Maybe these are the bigger, thirstier rigs? Also, the price of diesel here is frequently higher than the price of gas. Fuel efficiency aside, maybe that's part of the equation.
Yea, I'm looking at F250 size rigs, so fuel is probably an issue. Agreed, nobody looks at how much more efficient they are. Too bad automakers can't be convinced to go a six cylinder diesel as a compromise.
There is a thin sliver of territory along the West Coast that widens when you go south into California where snow is less common, .... .
The Dodge Cummins is a 6 cylinder.
Yep pretty much always will be, when Ford and Chevy can't figure out how to make the same horsepower with less then 8 cylinders....
