[QUOTE="smitty2919, post: 16508915, member: 113577"] I don't doubt the benefit of diesel. I guess I'm gun shy hearing how maintenance and working on them is a pain. A friend of mine I race with has owned a 2017 LP5 Sierra Denali 2500 and traded up to a 2020 diesel Denali "because the trade in was too good to pass up". I spoke to him and he said given my needs/frequency a gas would be better all things considered LOL. Another good friend of mine owned a local speed shop for mostly LS based vehicles (tuning/mechanical etc) and "would never own a diesel outside of warranty"...he leases a '17 Sierra Denali 2500. Ideally the next truck is the "forever truck". Which mean I'll own it way past warranty. I'm not one to want/need the next best thing so getting into something new every 5 years is not something I see happening. Hell in 2-3 years, a 2020/21 model truck may be affordable. We COULD afford a brand new truck, but I don't think I could stomach the depreciation hit buying new. So a slightly used with warranty seems best. Very polarizing opinions on this lol. I appreciate the tips! [/QUOTE]
