Will fuel prices dictate you selling your CTD?

I know many of you have to have a diesel and don't have any choice. My question is for those who do not have to have a CTD. Is there a certain price that fuel could reach that would make you sell your CTD?? I know I came from an old Tacoma that took $25 to fill and got 19 mpg mixed. Now the new Tacomas have much more room, power, and get 22 mpg. They are starting to sound pretty sweet as diesel fuel continues its climb. It's starting to look like the time of $90 fill-ups with a truck that gets an honest 14.5 mpg are on its way. I personally love my CTD, but I want no part of that. What do you guys think..
