its the turning of the season and I'm looking to buy a truck for an everyday driver. I'm driving 60 miles a day at the least. There is two vehicles I am looking into, a 2001 s10 zr2 and a 1998 Ram 2500 cummins. the zr2 has about 65kmi and the cummins has 110kmi. The prices of of fuel might be a key to my decision. so what I'm getting at is gimmie the pros and cons of these 2 vehicles and maybe what your choice would be.(mpg) thanks a lot guys
P.S. I am a new member of the volunteer fire house and have to leave the house without the proper warm-up for the diesel.can it hurt the motor??

 

Dodge did.t have a lot of luck with tranny's around that time in the gas engines...not sure about the diesel.


I'm a volunteer too.

 

Get the s-10 or just find a silverado.

 

If you don't need the pulling power of the deisel get the s-10.
Or maybe if ya need the cargo space find a fullsize gasser.
I tow a trail beater frequently and still rather have my gas motor.
Only way i'de get a deisel is if i needed the pulling power.
