There is no comparison between the trucks. A new burb and a new Dodge 3500 would be roughly the same price, but there is just no way a GMC 350 can campare in power and fuel economy with the RAM.
While I agree the there is no comparisson, the one you have drawn is unfair. Compare a current day 8.1 instead of a GM 350. I think the you will find the power to be surprisingly similar. The mileage difference will still exist.
If you are going to compare, use two vehicles that are rated to do the same job, ie.: 8.1 vs. Duramax, or V-10 vs PSD.
Mind you I am an advocate for using a diesel for towing BIG.
