This also throws those BS arguements out the window how a diesel that is large enough to have the same power as a gasser will be less efficient.

Seems like I remember saying more than once that a diesel is efficient throughout its load range, even at very low loads. I suppose I will see someone here say the diesel vette clone only gets 70mpg because the diesel fuel has 20% more energy ?
