I used to pull a trailer with the truck and used it as my daily driver. Remember when diesel cost less than gasoline? When I started running the WVO for fuel was when I started looking for the Mercedes, as the truck sucks the fuel down faster than I can procure the oil and blend it.

Since acquiring the car I go everywhere in it. The truck often sits for a week or more at a time without even being driven. I love the truck and do still need it occassionally, so I'm definitly keeping it. The truck is also more comfortable to travel in for long trips and it's what I use to haul the dogs around for Schutzhund.

The rate is not a seasonal thing. I wish they'd implement a system that when it comes to PIP and Liability coverage, as well as Collision, it's the driver that's insured instead of the vehicle, but let's face it, insurance industry is not interested in changing to save policy holders money.
