As a result of Tier II, my old 7.3 whips the socks off of newer truck diesels.
I mean by a 6 MPG margin. That's roughly 25-33%. A big price to pay for the fact they are 0.01gm/mile cleaner in PM2.5 than my eight year old truck.
If CO2 matters to you (it doesn't to me) you are faced with a trade-off. A lot more CO2 and a tiny bit less PM2.5 or a tiny bit more PM2.5 and a lot less CO2.
Ain't engineering fun?
