I'm thinking about upgrading from my half ton truck to a diesel. And by "thinking" I mean I am going to here in the near future. My basic guidelines/needs/wants/desires/etc... are: Diesel, 4-dr, and Used. I have a mileage and price in mind, and have been able to find a good number of vehicles that fit my diesel, 4dr, used, low(ish) miles and in my price range.... just need to know where to go from here...
Basically I'm just looking for some tips: '04 - '07 what are the best diesel engines? Manual vs Automatic? 2wd vs 4wd?
I've never had a diesel, or a manual, for a personal vehicle before, so what are some things to look out for when shopping around? I don't really have a preference for Ford, Dodge, GMC, or Chevy.
Thanks for any input,
Ryan
