Unless you are pulling nearly ALL the time, the diesel will not save you anything. The added cost of maintenance, and the added cost of purchase may never be recouped in fuel savings, especially now that diesel is much higher than gasoline.
Pulling with a diesel making 16 mpg vs. a gas at 10 mpg won't save you enough to cover the added cost of buying the diesel.
I also HATE that diesel smell all over everything no matter how careful I am when filling up the diesel pickup.
I agree that for pulling, nothing beats a diesel. And I LOVE that diesel rattle and a little smoke out the pipes now and then, but it just doesn't pencil out if you aren't pulling nearly all the time.
