The difference here is only 12C/Gal versus premium unleaded.
12c/gal, or even 35c/gal diff is the least of my worries
Small price to pay for the awesomeness of towing with a diesel.Boating Lake Mead since 2000

Yeah, the Allison is pretty sweet! It's really sweet if you have a lot of hills where you live. He will also have the best exhaust brake on the market as well. I love going snowboarding and coming down from Eisenhower tunnel (12k feet) and letting the Allison do all of the work coming back down the hills.

Congrats on the purchase. The first time you tow your boat, you will giggle about how nice it is owning a real truck.Attached FilesLast edited by Nobody; 02-22-2012, 05:11 PM.

Originally posted by Timmy! View PostLOL! Tundra's are nice, they have tons of power (for a gas truck) but let's not be getting carried away with comparing the transmission to an Allison.
Here is my tow vehicle, it has training wheels.
