Apparently Studebaker is developing and soon to be manufacturing new vehicles. All of which will be powered by a diesel/electric hybrid motor.

That's right by where I grew up.

thats great seeing as how DEISEL is more expensive than regular.

also better mileage and better for the environment. all the better stuff is always more expensive. it received a price purge after the whole influx
of diesel cars hit the market. it USED to be cheaper.

I need to get a diesel with a big fuel tank. Diesel is only about 2 dollars in mexico and I'm less then 30 minutes from the border

Diesel engines last forever.

I think Diesel is pretty close to $5 a gallon.
How many miles is the average diesel pick up good for?
I know deisel doesnt burn fuel when they just idle.
The Torque some of them things put out is incredible.
One from ford is over 500 ft lbs

My friends got a dodge ram 2500 turbo diesel double cab with some aftermarket performance parts that gets 28 mpg cruising and about 20-22 with the
pedal to the floor. Can hit 90+ just going up an onramp. He got it used for 15k and put in about 2k in aftermarket parts. A diesel engine will
easily last more then 300 thousand miles. After I get my old ford done I'm planning on getting a nice big diesel.
