You have to take into account that diesel is roughly 20% more expensive than gasoline. Especially if it's a daily driver.

Just sayin'

Yup. the fuel is indeed 20% more expensive. Of course, it drags you 30% farther down the road, so you still wind up with lower per-mile fuel costs.

Yes, but the maintenance and repair cost is more with a diesel.

With a Cummins you change the oil and filter plus air and fuel filters.

Oil and filter up to 15K same for air and fuel filters.

So I disagree. Don't know about GM or Ford Diesel costs.
