[QUOTE="7998, post: 16395035, member: 70541"] Ok lets go to school. 3.0 Powerstroke is a $4000 option. 3.5 Ecoboost is $600 DEF is about a $.01 a mile I'm going to go with the EPA's rated mpg, not some hyper milers internet claims Powerstroke-22 combined mpg's 3.5tt - 18 combined mpg's Over the course of say 100,000 miles you'll use 4545 gallons of diesel and 5555 gallons of gas with the ecoboost. Diesel runs about $.75 to $1 more a gallon. Currently it is a $1 more PSD will cost $13,635 in fuel +$1000 in DEF Ecoboost will cost $11,110 $3600 initial cost plus $2500 more in fuel plus $1000 DEF equals an additional $7100 of operating cost over the course of 100,000 miles. It's slower, tows less, and I'm sure there is other things the PSD needs that cost more then a 3.5EB. 10-15 years ago when regular and diesel were about the same price and you didn't need to add Obama fluid or the engine wasn't choked by emissions the PSD or EcoDiesel would've made sense. Today it just doesn't, imo. [/QUOTE]
