Just my perceptions: My issue with a 1/2 ton diesel is that it does nothing a half ton gasser won’t do, except get more MPG....they don’t tow more or haul more, just cost more to buy and maintain. It seems more practical (for true truck use) to have a 3/4 ton, if you NEED a diesel....but I don’t have one, and Biden gas may end up at $8/gallon and change our dynamics to running golf carts.
