I can understand the need for a diesel in the heavy trucks over the gas when you have a lot of weight to tow. When the higher displacement gas engines come out that window will be made smaller though.
I can't understand the need for a diesel in the F-150 when the EB will outperform it. That's just my opinion and if yours differs that's OK with me.
Trucking companies would use an engine that would run on skunk pee if it would save them a nickle. Diesel gives better fuel efficiency, that is why they exist. 1/2 ton trucks are being forced by government CAFE standards to increase mileage and that is why they are now produced.
