I`m also a diesel tech as well as gas engine tech. so yes from both perspectives the diesel isn't what it used to be. sure if you want 900lb feet of torque out of a 3/4 ton truck great, but it has to be able to make it back home! and as far as fuel mileage, diesel again isn't much better than gassers.

Ask any smart diesel tech what they drive? chances are its a gasser. If not, its an older and more reliable diesel.

And.... I have a fleet of over 500 gas and diesel powered vehicles with statistics and analytical data on how much we spend on them, how much down time, and our ROI. Not to mention four Ford medium duty dealerships. Not to mention oilfield customers with light and medium duty trucks like Schlumberger, Haliberton, and various others that we service. So sorry, but not sorry because you saying that gas engines don't break down(especially when used in the same duty cycle as a diesel) is a load of crock.

And no, even our best diesel techs still drive diesels along with gasers. Heck, even some race them at our local track.
