So your scared of high rpms? Okay. YOU have a "reason" not to buy a gasser.
Other than the optics of it, what is the difference between a gasser at 5000rpm, or a diesel at 3000? (other than 50 or so horsepower, haha)
Having swapped out our cummins 5.9 Ram shop truck to a Hemi..... The hemi wins every time. Especially when half the injectors took a dump and we had to overhaul the fuel system. Our fleet manager agreed, never again. Not a single driver misses the cummins.
At auction, we took a hit because apparently folks have learned the inevitability of costly diesel repairs.
