No one ever seems to factor in resale value when talking diesel vs gas. I'm not talking hypothetical higher diesel resale values.

Just because the diesel option is purchased doesn't mean it's just money down the drain. IMO it's no different than buying a Laramie Longhorn over the SLT or Tradesman. Come selling time the more expensive truck will sell for more money.
No one buys a diesel and 3 yrs latter sells it for the same price as a gasser.
Well said

Read closer and put away the pitchforks and torches...
