Maybe this is better for a new thread or a PM, since it doesn't involve what I did to my truck lol. Sorry to further derail this thread. PM me if you want to I would appreciate it kindly.

Cost me $150-160 for fillin up my old 91. Lasts like 500-600kms in city(almost 2 weeks of commuting) and 700-750kms on highway....
Insurance on it was $70 a month for $2M liability and some mid range coverage, forget exact details.
Newer truck my 07 F250 6.0, cost me $130-140 to fill and lasts 600-650kms in the city(more than two weeks commuting) and 750-800kms on highway...
Insurance full coverage and $2M liability is $180 a month....
Gas prices here in BC are about $4.389-4.985/USGal
Diesel prices are about $4.834-4.985/USGal
Insurance is Provincially operated here in BC... No competition what so ever, so insurance is stupidly expensive, my rates are with 40% 10 year safe driving.(max is 43%) discount. Coworker of mine who just got his license in October is paying with no discounts $296/month for full coverage and $2M liability...
Oh and to keep on topic, my old 91 is back in my hometown 1150 kms away and I drive my 07 exclusively now where I live.

Well today yesterday and the day before that I have been "in my spare time mind you I work nights every night" trying to get the t-case out of my 88 f150 its a bw 1356 and its been fighting me the whole way, does any one have any tricks in getting at the top 2 bolts attaching the tranny to the t-case? My chilton isn't helping. Oh every thing elts is unhooked and disconnected from the t-case, its just become a real head scratcher

Alright, got her inspected this morning and am good to go. Now I got to see how far I can go before I run out of gas money.
I didn't think it would be too bad with a regular cab older truck.
