you don't gotta work a diesel to death to justify owning one...better fuel economy and less maintenance alone is enough reason to own one 
get an older one like wombat did...or an early 2nd gen...or late second gen like mine..all great motors.
with 3.55 gears you can pull 24mpg average out of them...
add an exhaust brake on them and your service brakes will last damn near 100k miles before changing them...especially with a manual transmission..

I'm not talking beating it to death, but there's no sense in owning one unless it's going to be worked.
So....here's my new truck....what better way to introduce her than ruin v-dub's thread????
Let the hatin and firing begin. Could not turn this one down. Could not find another truck in this good of condition in my price range. I needed a truck. It is what it is.

Other than that it looks like a nice truck.
