I just returned from vacation on the Big Island of Hawaii and have never seen such a concentration of diesel trucks. It was probably a 3-3-1 ratio of Cummins-Powerstroke-Duramax. Diesels were everywhere.

Also, every freakin' gas station sold diesel. I suppose with regular gas at $1.98 and diesel at $2.16, the increased efficiency of the diesel pays off in the long run.

Over here on Oahu, I saw a 2500HD CC/SB with at least an 8-10" lift and 38" tires. It looked pretty professional but I was not able to get a close look.

Just an interesting note that Duramaxes are alive and well in the 50th state.

I was wondering if any had made it over there yet. I was on Maui in March and saw one 2500 HD but it was a gasser. Good to hear. So you take vacation on the Big Island hey? Oahu is the only island I haven't been on yet. In 2004 my wife and I are planning on going to Oahu, maybe for 2 or 3 days then the Big Island, that's our favorite. Mahalo.
