X2. No payback is needed. I have gotten the price of the diesel back and more at trade in.
That makes it a nearly free luxury. Def is cheap and of no consequence. Oil changes are at higher intervals and the price difference isn't enough to worry about.
Further, many people like turbo diesels because of their ability to work hard without down shifting and spining hard.
Yeah, when my brother traded in his old Cummins for his 2012 PSD. The salesman forgot(or so he says) to select that it was a diesel in the trade in value guide on NADA. It bumped up the trade in value another $6k when he applied the diesel engine option over the gas engine. That was just about what he paid for the option when he bought it new.
