So, I am really pondering getting a 2500 HD even though I don't haul and don't tow. It will just be one big toy! I LOVE the look of the new HD and can't stop looking at my options. The diesel adds about $10K to the cost of the truck and I'll never get my money back out of it since I'll keep her 2 years at most before moving onto my next toy. Looking at possibly going with a loaded High Country Midnight Edition gasser which, fully optioned, will be around $82K MSRP. Would love some insights from folks that know far more than I do when it comes to HDs. If I buy a gasser HD, will the resale be far worse than that of the Duramax? Is it really worth the $10K? Trying to think through all of my options, and fully understand the pros and cons as I start to look at making a decision. The ZR2 variant is more than I want to spend, but not out of the question. I wish I could get a ZR2 in a Midnight Edition Leaning towards the High Country since my wife is 5' tall and wants my next truck to have the power steps (I know I can always add them to the ZR2) and I don't do any off-roading except for taking her out on the beaches here in FL. I, typically drive about 6-7K miles per year since I work from home to give a better picture of use.
So, based on what I shared, what are your thoughts on gasser versus diesel and some pros and cons understanding my use above?
Thanks guys!
