Ford F150 is going Powerstroke Diesel
It's going to be a V6, like the one in the 1500 Ram. Link

I have an idea. Why don't you compare your bare bones diesel to the Platinum level trim. Then you can claim your diesel is tens of thousands of dollars cheaper to own. If your going to compare apples to oranges, go big.
If I had a bare bones diesel then I would compare it to another vehicle with the same price because it is about getting the options that are more important to me at that price, not trim levels. As I said before, some people don't mind sacrificing bells and whistle options for a better engine option, and others do not mind getting a base engine option for more bells and whistles. What everyone wants in a truck is different just like everyone's budget is different.
Again, it is about comparing the options that are more important to you within your budget, not trim level to trim level. Some may not want a Platinum just as some may not want a diesel. It really is that simple.
If you blantently ignore the glaringly conspicuous fact that the diesel engine costs $8,000.00 more than the gas engine, then the diesel is cheaper to own then the gasser.
