And now my wife want a Durango - so the plan is to pay off the truck
early, buy a Durango (keep the truck which I'll keep driving), then pay
off the PT Cruiser early (and keep it, first year made, original owner),
then buy me a Ram with a Cummins Turbo Diesel (possibly keep the first
truck, we'll see).

The average MPG out of the sum of those vehicles will be about 17 MPG. 
That's stark contrast tot he 50+ my Volkswagen Rabbit diesel got, and it
wasn't even a turbo...
