How are some people comparing features in a truck worth up to $8K, to a much less powerful, much slower, MUCH more expensive engine? I buy fairly basic trucks, and wouldn't spend more for a platinum, but if I did, it's tangible. The diesel is donkey economics with laughable power levels, unproven reliability, and expensive maintenance; not much upside there to ponder. On second thought, distronic cruise control and fan cooled seats seem like a steal!
I'm a business owner who can buy what I want, for my work vehicle, or for my wife for here winter rig (she daily drives my modded F150), and the diesel just doesn't fit any rational financial thinking. Not even close.
Oh, and our company owns 3 diesels, none of which present any clear balance sheet advantages whatsoever.
