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.

Save yer breath man. We're in the gasser zone now!
My experience may be a little jaded, but it's no more ridiculous than some of these stories.
Picture it. Traveling across the tundra in a caravan. My feet freeze to the floor of the truck and so does the rest of me. 6.2 Ford gasser under my @ss.
Driving back to camp in a bad blow. Borderline phase 3. Was already supposed to have a front end loader in front of me. What truck loses its electric power steering and the rest of the electronics go nutz? You guessed it. A brand shiny new Chevy gasser!
Which truck was one of only about 8 out of 20 to make it back to camp under its own power during a 50 year Arctic storm?









A 6.7 CUMMINS mega cab!!!!!


True story btw.


No gassers were intentionally harmed in the making of this story...
