Keep in mind diesel fuel is 10-20% more than 87 Octane.

Do you want to save (fuel) money? Put the OEM wheels/tires back on and you'll probably get 10% better. Oh, and you'd get 10 tanks of fuel for the aftermarket stuff too.

You are at least $5k unside down on your current truck. Go ahead, check out www.kbb.com and www.edmunds.com if you don't believe me (and glc).

How many miles a month/year do you drive the truck?

Dumb idea. If you don't need it, do not buy it.

Also, published book values right now are a lot higher than the real prices trucks are trading for where it counts - the wholesale and auction market. The only people who are paying close to book price for used trucks are fools.
