BTW speaking of fairness, do you think it was fair to compare a 2016 5.0 diesel with a 2004 5.9?
Point A to Point B Yes
Time from Point A to Point B up a grade No :W
Last time I checked the Duramax and the Powerstroke is a V8 diesel and the article I posted proves it does get better mileage that the 6.
Well not knowing the years you speak of Bob, I'll just speak to a pre emissions era like >2007. Personally hand figured numbers for my little 6 banger highway non towing at 65 is right at 19-20 MPG. And thats with 6 tires not 4. Pretty sure most 6.0 PSD and DMAX can't get that mileage. But then again I read some poster from S Dakota could out climb any diesel at 11k' in elevation out of his 5.7 Hemi :B
Changing years to this years Ike test on FLT the 2015 Ram got much better mileage than the Ford did. But then again what was their DEF usage? Ah now we have to figure in the DEF to add to the equation :W To bad GM couldn't (or wouldn't) contribute to that test.
Bottom line is YMMV and I take the rags for what they are.... Corporate America just trying to make a buck or million.
PS need that Edmonds link on the 2004 PSD being the most reliable engine. It was priceless :B
