The others assumed you meant exhaust noise. That's stricly a function of the exhaust system.

If you meant that nasty "rattle" that diesels are famous for, well, that's a different story. The Cummins in your neighbors Dodge is very poorly designed. A friend has one and he can't turn the radio up loud enough to drown the %#$^ thing out. It's noisier than a D9 Cat. The later models with the computer controlled injection are a little quieter.

The big rigs have much better designed engines in them and are therefore quieter. Diesels can be almost totally free of rattle; stand next to a late model Mecerdes sometime and you'll see what a well-designed diesel sounds like.
