[QUOTE="GTSpartan, post: 16120994, member: 21531"] +1 Diesels gave up the operating cost advantage a long time ago. And unless you are hauling serious weight, a low rpm gasser in the ~500-550 lbft torque range is plenty of grunt for the VAST majority of people. Remember, the diesel offerings from the mid 2000's were in this general range, with far inferior transmissions, and did just fine. It's easy to forget that proper gearing makes a world of difference. Very smart plan by Ford. Will really make people think twice before they check than $9K diesel option, and all the headaches that come with it. [/QUOTE]
