Gasser guys and gals ...why not a diesel ?

I can certainly attest to the fact that diesel engines cost more and cost more to maintain. Previously I have only ever owned gas engines. My former Ford truck with the 5.4 was fairly straight forward to maintain. My new truck with the 6.7 turbo diesel costs exponentially more just to do routine maintenance. There are more filters and materials to buy, those materials are more expensive and the labor - if you pay for that - also costs more. Diesel fuel is also more expensive.
