The energy content in Diesel fuel is so far superior to alternatives that there should be no argument. Sure diesel smells rough but the efficiency is fantastic. GMC has a 3.0 liter Turbo diesel 1/2 ton pickup that gets in the mid-30s MPG and can tow 10,000 lbs. Compare that to a V8 gas powered engine in the same truck that gets 1/2 that MPG. Diesel flat out makes more energy & does more work than any viable alternative.

I love this truck and will be buying it this year.

It really is superior. The Karens think it’s dirty and gross, though - so it must be banned.

Never owned a diesel truck, but did have a 2015 diesel Volkswagen Passat (miss the hell out of that thing :banghead

And will probably be illegal for GMC to sell by 2028.
