or any diesel. with fuel prices at averaging 4.79 a gallon where im at, bio diesel is the way to go. my dad is thinking about that for his 6.0 powerstroke excursion.

Here in PA, diesel is about $.50 more than gas. Does anyone here have any idea how much a biodiesel conversion machine-thing would cost to operate?

Quadrasteer was badass, and I wish GM kept it. Plus, the bed the GMC had for was sweet, just slightly widened for the extra axle width.

Tex, speaking of quadrasteer, have you seen silvy's with it, i found a black 2001 z71 quadrasteer silverado one time. i just about ****ed myself. i cant find any pics of that bodystyle now (of course)

but i did find this

The Prelude had four wheel steering... I saw a video of it. Kind of interesting.

Here in Connecticut it's $5.15 for diesel and gas is a dollar less.

BTW, your whole hybrid argument is a flawed rant.

I payed $5.43 for unleaded gas on the water last weekend. It was $4.20 at the street pump. Something's just gotta give, besides my wallet.

[noturday]

The cost of a new car far out weighs paying for gas at the pump.

People who are trading in their SUVs that they haven't even payed off for a more fuel efficient car are dumb-struck that their costing themselves FAR FAR more in the end, then to just pay off the **** truck.

Ok when was the last year GM had Qsteer in sierra's and it what model was it in...

I thought it was 2006, but i cant even find an 05 with the right package on there (what is the packages name? i forget...).

Are these trucks that rare?
