Chalk up another win for the diesel and move on down the road with a smile on your face. That's what it's about. ;)
If a vehicle was equipped with a 300hp prime mover and you were insulated from sensory input like noise, tach, throttle position, etc., my guess is you wouldn't be able to tell if it was diesel, gas, steam, or electricity pulling you up the hill.
When you plug the coffee pot in, does it brew faster if the power was generated by diesel rather than gasoline or hydroelectric?
As a matter of fact I just traded an 06 F150 for an 06 Ram 3500 CTD last week. I was shocked at the Dodge when I took it for a test drive. It rode a lot smoother and the cab was quieter. I actually made a friend of mine take it out too to make sure it wasn't just me. He even said the comparison was like going from a pinto to a cadillac. Now factor in that I am so far getting 16-20 mpg in the dodge and I will be smiling till the body rusts off. The best I ever got out of the F150 was 17.
