The fuel economy is better in the diesel. However, since the diesel option is $4,000, and diesel fuel cost more than gasoline, and it takes 9 quarts of oil, and you have to buy DEF, and a fuel filter replacement every other oil change as compared to gasoline engines, I am not sure there is any cost savings.
So why did I buy the diesel? 442 lb.-ft. of torque. Plus it sounds cool.
