Not sure if this is quite on topic. I went 'round and 'round with the diesel/gas pros/cons before I purchased my TV (see signature). I decided on gas (even surprised myself) for the following reasons.
1. Having lived through the gasoline re-formulation event (remember that fiasco?) I have no desire to gamble on whether my diesel will perform on future sulfur-deficient fuels. No way would I want to be constantly replacing fuel pumps or injectors.
2. On the same note, gasoline has been tweaked about as far as it can be. The gas engine I buy today is engineered to run on fuel available in the US and Canada today and tomorrow.
3. The big block GM engine is a proven performer that will more than meet my needs. It is quiet and easily maintained. More than enough horsepower and torque to motivate a 10,000 lb. TT over any road.
4. Finally, The "employee" discount pricing was too good to pass up.
