The little diesel market is a different animal than the Cummins, Powerstroke and Duramax in the HD market - those offer better fuel economy as well as substantially better performance.
MARGINALLY better fuel economy for substantially better performance.
The mini-diesels offer SUBSTANTIALLY better fuel economy with marginally less performance. Maybe.
You gotta remember the gas engines make those HP/TQ numbers at high RPMs. The diesels will be cranking out 440ft-lbs down in the lower RPMs where it is useful.
