Don't mention gas prices as that's a 2-edged sword for me. I work in the natural gas ind. and when prices are high business is great and gas is cheap - relatively speaking (for me, anyway). When prices are low- business is slow.
I thought my '94 454 Suburban would become my fishing vehicle, but I liked my 04 stretch-cab 8.1 liter Sierra for pulling the toy-hauler much better. Then I bought an 05 crew-cab Duramax for the mileage, but that became almost a wash with the high diesel prices. So now I have 3 trucks and still have to decide which one to take fishin'. But I don't break any rods cause the toy-hauler is plenty long enough and doesn't have a ceiling fan. When ATV'n from spot to spot, I break the rod down into 2 halves and put it in the gun-rack. Just join the two halves again at the new spot, feed out the leader and fly, and I'm ready again.
