Well there are diesel drivers and diesel owners. The driver expects to treat his diesel like a gasser and be happy. That doesn't work, a diesel is different and those that don't understand that will never like them.
I am a owner I understand the differances on my diesel and a gasser, I drive a Cummins 5.9 and will never go back to gas!
My 5.9 is stronger than my old 460 ford and gets far better fuel mileage and I. Hangs oil half as often.
There are drivers that shod never get a dies as they just don't understand the differances!
God and goddess, I feel like I am trying to explain this to my cats! I do understand the difference between a diesel and a gas engine. I love diesels...but unfortunately, since 2007, they have gotten finicky enough, complicated enough, delicate enough, expensive enough, and thirsty enough that it's just not worth it anymore. I would happily drive a pre-2007 diesel forever. I wouldn't own a post-2007 if you gave it to me.
