If you run a diesel at 5200 rpm for a mile it will come apart.
A gasoline engine at redline is not tearing it itself apart any more than a diesel operating at redline. (But it may sound like it.)
HAHAHA!! O.K what ever. You win......:)
The whole point is a Diesel doesn't need to turn 5,200 rpm to move a large load.
Just remember that the land speed record towing is held by a diesel, 140+ mph towing a TT trailer with all necessary equipment to camp.
