Who said it doesn’t pay to drive a 1/2 ton diesel Ford.

While I agree most will probably never make up the price difference, there is nothing like towing with a diesel period.
I've towed with both and if financially able, I will always purchase a diesel when the time comes.


I get that with the larger diesels in the 2500s. But the diesel they are putting in the 150s have less HP, and torque than their gas counter parts. So you are in truth paying more for less.
