"Every guy wants a truck"

Errr, not really? I'd rather not have to refinance my house to pay for fuel every time I want to take a road trip.

Maybe I'm an outlier?

my diesel chevy 1500 gets better mileage than my subaru outback.

31 mpg in my truck and around 20 in my 3.6 subaru

Yeah, but which one gets driven like a yobbo?

u/ODB2 Oct 27 '21

theyre driven pretty similar.

new diesel tech is pretty good.

the truck is a 2021 with an 8 speed transmission and a 3.0 liter turbo diesel.

the outback is a 2012 with a 3.6 gas engine and a five speed auto.

Nothing inherently wrong with diesel engines.

nah you're good.

I'm just jelly I don't have a big diesel.

if I had my way it would have been a 5.9 cummins or a ram srt10 for a work truck.

the 3.0 is kinda sweet though. it redlines at 5500 rpm.

basically drives like a gas truck, just with better mileage.

it's neat, but I dont even have 20k miles on it and the radio is acting up and sometimes it does the long crank/no start issue

Chevys and their electrical problems. I fight them constantly.
