Maintenance costs on a diesel are definatley lower than a gasser. Filters need replacing on all engines, Injectors are good for up to 250 000 km and up sometimes, my injector pump is 20 years old and still pumping "knock on wood", and oil is cheap still.
A diesel lasts at least twice as long as a gasser and it is completely resleevable.Not to mention the components are stronger and just last longer.
Instead of burning a dry fuel like gas , Its fuel has great lubrication properties so less wear. You can turbo it ,intercool it, blow it , supercharge it, and it will take the load.
And then there is the torque. Ohh the torque.
Face it gas sucks
