I read this topic quite a bit here so here's PUT.com attempt to pencil whip the cost of ownership comparing some gas engine trucks to the new RAM Ecodiesel truck. Link Enjoy...

Where is resale cost factored in here? Compare a Cummins to a gas engine and you get the vast majority of the entry fee back at resale. I would be willing to bet the Ecodiesel (I hate that name) will be the same.
Well that's going to depend to reliability for sure. The Ford 6.0 doesn't really carry much premium over the V10, and in cutaway and cab-chassis applications, the 6.0's usually goes for thousands less than a V10 with similar miles.
