Dave, before I got my first diesel pickup I went through the same mental exercise as you. Liked the diesel concept but didn't think I could justify the cost. I did some homework and found out something interesting. At the time (this was in the 90's) a diesel engine cost about $3500 extra. I did some research and found the average resale value of a diesel pickup ran about $3500 more. In other words, the rest of the pickup would depreciate but the engine option apparently did not. I'm not sure of the difference now but I would guess this is still in play. I went ahead and got a diesel and have never been sorry. When it was time to get another one I didn't even consider getting anything but a diesel. Mike
