My newest 'tugger' is a 2014, 3500 Dodge with the 6.4 gasser. Will it pull with the diesel - no. But it pulls better than a 460 Ford I once had and gets better mileage than the 460 did. (not knocking the Ford here, it was a good truck ) Mileage on the Dodge has ranged from 7 to 14 depending on the load and speed of course. I had a short run on one trip that it dropped to 5.5 for a few miles, but it was a hard pull and I was pushing it hard. I just don't put enough miles on the one ton to justify the price of the diesel. It was slightly over 8K more for the cheapest diesel they had on the lot. I don't have any 'numbers', but it would take a long time to save 8K on fuel costs !
