just to move this thread along on a site call Fast Lane Trucking
http://www.tfltruck.com/ click the Ike Gauntlet tab and watch some of the test they do..
a couple i watched was 2500 GMC gas and diesel version with the same weight going up the 8 mile 7% grade from Silverthorne CO to the Ike tunnel on I-70.
The gasser got 2.5 mpg and it took 10 min or so at WOT while the diesel did that in like 8 min and got 4 mpg..
I say watch both videos of the runs and see for yourself the main difference between gas and diesel.
