One thing that has always pushed me toward diesels is that I prefer the powerband, torque and lack of drama (high rpms) when it come to working an engine hard.
Only on an RV forum can operating an engine at its designed parameters be stated as "drama" LOL. That's a good one.
Another great reminder of the benefits of avoiding the truck threads. Now off to fire up the snow blower, and crank the ole Kohler gasser up to drama level.
If you like pulling mountain passes at or near redline with a heavy load, good for you. I don’t and having an engine screaming at high rpm is what I call drama. Go deal with it. All I hear from my two diesels is the sweet sound of my turbo cramming more air into the engine. And they never exceed 3000 rpm doing it. The one with a custom compound set up has an especially sweet sound to it.
