I personally dont care which would be faster from 0-60 towing. Diesels pull better, with better MPG loaded up as well as empty, and with greater ease than a gasser. They simply do a better job pulling loads and I dont see how anyone could argue the point? Sure they cost more money..who cares? They do the job better and more easily...at least for me. If you are happy with the gasser, more power to you..I just prefer diesel all the way around:)
I care.
I could light a $100 bill on fire to warm my hands too, it would work, just wouldn't be the best decision for me to make.
Diesels do pull better than their equivalent gas engine cousins - but for some of us, that's not the final word.
Fuel costs, repair costs, purchase price, cab heating ability, not having to bother with DEF and emissions related CELs, and other things also matter.
