Apparently you have never watched the egt on a diesel towing a load and are using your nose as a calibrated temperature measuring tool.
A diesel outlasting a gasser is a complete total frabrication and a lie. gassers with 300,000 + miles are the norm and running fine with a totally rusted and rotten frame and body.

How much fuel has to be saved to pay for the diesel option and diesel service / repair costs ?
