Do what makes you happy.Howdy PlayfulBird,
I know it costs more money, needs more maintenance, and in my case will never be driven enough to make it to the break even point but I honestly think I would be happier with the diesel. Just wish a person could strip all the epa crap off of it and make it a proper truck.
I am pretty much a computer idiot but I long ago figured out it was smarter to go on a forum and ask questions then to blindly go into something that could be a big mistake down the road. I am going to start looking at truck and do some test drives that's the only way forward at this point.
I found a dealer in Idaho who sells for under msrp, I went to the Jeep web site where you can build a truck, spent hours checking different things until I finally got all the options I wanted, so I have summited that build sheet to the dealer waiting now to see what kind of price it will come to.
The way the build web site works is pretty wonky, I had everything done, my options all picked and decided I wanted the black wheels rather then the standard silver ones, clicked on black wheels and it took the diesel drive train away, another time I clicked on the insulating head liners, that took the diesel option away same with adding the hard folding bed cover, I am ASSUMING it had to do with weight and being able to keep the towing package, can't think of any other reason. I in the end sent in a build sheet for "Sport S" that had everything I wanted that's the only model that worked for me.

There is crap happening everyday, if the truck makes you smile it is damn well worth it.
Love Smokin That Diesel
I know that in Canada there is a complete delete kit for the adblue and stuff, no clue if that is legal were you are. There it is a greyzone, here in Germany it is a huge NO.
