Gas or Diesel

Once you have the torque of a diesel at your foot anything else will be like pulling with a KIA.
That's purely a matter of preference and not based on the physics of horsepower conversion.
The only torque that matters is the torque actually being applied to the drive axle(s) ... and what it takes to make that is horsepower conversion by the proper overall vehicle gearing so as to transform that horsepower into drive axle torque.
Diesels pull different than gassers, not intrinsically better than gassers. Thoroughly read and absorb this discussion thread to understand what's really going on with the two different ways of pulling a load:
