i'm only focusing on your repeated statement that the diesel added $6K to the price of the vehicle, and your various attempts to support that statement by including the cost of a transmission, and not comparing it to a similarly equipped vehicle.
even the article you've linked show that it didn't, but that article was all over the place..

the EcoD was ~$4k more than a similarly equipped vehicle (sometimes less). that's simply the math.
Whatever lifts your skirt bud, but adding the diesel option from the 3.6L manual I was going to get did add $6k to my MSRP whether you like it or not. It is industry norm across all of our 150+ truck dealerships to quote the upcharge of options based on their cost from the base model, not from models with other upgraded options. I am sorry if you don't like that and think it is wrong.

no problem with that; that's a correct statement since you included the entire calculation.
base model stick vs. diesel and auto.
<snipped the rest since it's not really relevant.>

Oh great! I am so glad I got your approval! I can now sleep at night and stop doing these hard drugs to cope with not living up to your expectations.

Wait, I just noticed something..... Berkeley, California!?! This insistence that I use what you deem as correct terms and verbiage all makes sense now.

it's just math. no need for drugs.
pretty sure arithmetic works the same everywhere.
