I want a diesel because they sound cool! I got the little motor with my current truck, on the next one I'm going all out!
You do realize that none of the newer diesels will sound like the old school diesels, right?

Check the tow drivers...see what they have for pulling and towing...that's their livelyhood.

You can't make money if you're parked on a lift, waiting for replacement parts to get you back on the road.

And those tow trucks have to operate in pretty much the same conditions (if not worse) as the ambulances do, too.
