look at it this way... if you buy a tundra and then a year later figure you needed a diesel, your resale will be high enough that you wont lose too much... if you buy a f250 diesel and decide you don't really need a diesel, you will lose your *** on resale!

I had a 2010 Tundra and was lucky to get 14 mpg, pulling my boat about 9. I just bought an f250 and get 15mpg pulling my boat and on the highway, that's with 35" tires.

Bought the f250 today. Final deciding factor was wife once a camper in the next couple years and didn't want to go thru this process again.

Andy get back to us after 100000 miles so we can see if you feel the same way! I have a 11 Dodge diesel that has 195000 miles on it all pulling, and have only had Def problems, and am waiting on Ac compressor for it now! The problems with all new diesels are EPA guidelines on exhaust!
