Re: Enclosed Trailers....
I was just doing some back of the envelope math factoring the aditional fuel cost per tank and roughly correcting for cost of fuel etc. Seems I've paid a couple grand more to get to the 150k milage in my truck than the costs to get there if it was a diesel.
Yeah, I get it the diesel make more torque, gets better economy and out perfoms my 8100. The more we compared the old 8100 to the newer Duramax the wider the gap becomes between the two.
The same way I cannot justify the purchase of a diesel for better fuel economy, from a ROI standpoint I think Chad is probably not going to be able to justify the FL trailer purchase using an increase in fuel economy- though I'm sure he could come up with several other good reasons to purchase a Featherlite.
