Back in the 90's yes I would love a diesel...not now......they smoke, stink they are way to loud, and sound like crap when you punch it. if I wanted a Mack truck I'd buy a Mack truck.

Hemi all they way...

Wow...those 90's diesel were awful....but todays Diesels are pretty much smoke free, quiet and sound great with a good exhaust system and the turbo whistle is an added bonus! I wouldn't trade my Cummins in for any V8 and If i could afford it i would slam a 5.9L Cummins in my JKU over a Hemi. The cummins with a stackable chip, bigger turbo and bigger exhaust would blow the doors off any V8 Hemi and still get better fuel economy.

Gotta love the diesels. I drove a '84 Mercedes with an inline 5 turbocharged diesel. It was a station wagon (it was high school) but when the turbo spooled up it hauled ass! Would love a turbo charged diesel for my Jeep.
