Its been a long time debate and we aren't quite sure anyone's gotten to the bottom if it yet. Dustin sits down to go through which option surpasses the other in Longevity, Maintenance, Fuel economy, Towing Power, and Off-road Capabilities.

Definitely do an off-road test between the gasser and diesel.
Agreee!!!
For those who say if you don't haul you don't need a diesel, yeah, I'm always _hauling ass_
Hauling more ass then a tractor trailer carrying donkeys 💯
This one right here😂😂😂😂😂😂
LOL maybe for a diesel you’re haulin’ ass
I think I saw this in a “shit diesel guys say” video. Haha 😂
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Id prefer a 2022 Ford Shelby Raptor.
Sell your kids brother it’ll be a great investment😂
Chato do you know which Ford dealership will take them? 😂🇺🇸
So relatable
Freddie Diaz I wish I just got a 2010 Ford F-150 fx4. I could only imagine having a 6.7L
Same...
As a diesel owner I feel offended with this question
Same
my man is right diesel has the power
@@ethanjoshua2548 gas is better
Gotta go diesel
Yes
Diesels ain’t everyday drivers tho
@@sterman077xmoore7 mine is. 2.8l duramax canyon
I daily drive a a 2017 twin turbo leveling kit which I think is whicked
Nah if I buy a new truck I'm buying a 4x4 gas chevy colorado
I think if you get a truck you might as well go diesel, better fuel efficiency for sure but oil changes and filter are going to be a lot more. That being said the resale value will pay for that.
Both the engines are good but it depends on what your gonna do with the truck or what you need to do with it
It honestly depends on what the vehicle is being used for
I know that diesel is better but I’m just a gasser guy love the sound of headers dual exhaust and flowmasters on an old gas Chevy or dodge v8
better in different ways. if you want to replace head gasket and overpriced injectors all the time go with the diesel
Fuel injected gasser, because I like my engine to start in the winter
In my 3 years of owning an LB7 in the middle of bumfuck nowhere Minnesota my truck hasn't started once. That was last winter when it was -30 to -40 for a week and the only reason it didn't start was because my batteries froze that's not a diesel problem it's a battery problem.
Doesn’t matter if it starts in the winter if it doesn’t have the power to drive through snow
Do you live in a country that doesn't have extension cords
The last category is subjective if it’s a diesel crawling would be better for that low end torque but if you have a prerunner gas all day it just depends on the situation off-road
I have only ever daily driven a diesel and plan to continue lol
Tell Fuller to stop 🤬 around and come back
Where is he?
@@gagedirks5322 he quit
Great video I feel they should make a diesel, gas, and electric truck
Thanks for the great video
Currently own both, gotta go diesel overall but definitely my gasser yota for offroad
I feel that off road would depend on your setting due to the torque diesels put out they have better capabilities in rocky terrain but in wet and sticky situations the lighter gas engine would work better like you said
Awesome guys I love ❤️ this Comparison
A Banker vs. Dustin debate on this subject would be amazing.
If y’all wanted to do a match off-road you could also do a good video after how to clean our engine bay thoroughly and safely since everything new has so many wires and fuses
Honestly I would love to see an Offroad race between The Arkon K-350 and CO2. You should do three differnt stages and do like time trials or something. Then we can decide who the Offroad crown goes to. 👌🏼
Everyone wants diesel until it's time to do diesel things. I've done my injectors =$5000 for the shop to do it, I've done water pump, complete brake job, fuel and brake lines. $100 to change oil, just for oil and filters. Cost of ownership is considerably higher and everyone who's debating on which needs to understand that.
They both are good in different situations i own both and i love them both 04 f150 4.6 and 05 f350 6.0
Everyone who choses gas had never owned a diesel lol
Here in Ohio I have a gasser and during cold whether I’m in my truck letting it heat up while my friend has a diesel and is trying for minutes to turn it on
That’s not true at all. I’ve owned the here diesels and now own gas. Cheaper better fuel economy and for what I do tow all I need. Gas wins
That’s why I got 3 gas trucks and 1 diesel
Different situations call for different specs. However I will mention a lot of diesels have an engine block heater for the winter
4:04 I recognize this road it’s in Texas I’ve passed that Mig15 jet to the left of the screen before
I drive a gasser but hope to get into a diesel for my next truck
it’s worth it
Me too bro!
Get a Cummins and you'll smile everytime you hit the right pedal.
If it's a diesel go midsize with a inline straight 4 cylinder and that's because of the size of the fuel tank and cost as well. If you want to go gasser go for a full size one. They are pretty good and the lift kits will probably be cheaper not only that but maintenance will be cheaper than a full sized diesel. Even when it comes to towing the full sized gas will probably have the same mileage as the midsize diesel mainly because of the size of the size of the fuel tank.
Well , I had a 2018 6.0 gasser & I just traded for 2020 duramax & I will never go back to gass. To me the comparison is not even close. I want from filling up every two - three days to once per week.
I like how they showed a ford when they were saying flaws.🙃
As a Ford owner. I have to agree
*Stares at 6.0 and 6.4 Powerstroke engines*
Yeah that's basically any Ford after the OBS generation
Can y'all talk about wheel adapters, how they work, and how to order the right sizes?
Of course we want to see an off-road challenge!
Coming from a f150 owner it’s gotta be diesel. Just can’t afford it
I always loved my 454 OBS but the 24V mega cab switched me
Hell yea show us a competition !!!
Both. Diesel is for tow, gas for daily go..thats how I roll. -99 5.9 5speed flatty lifted on 37s Cummins. And 2003 z71 chevy Tahoe 5.3 gasser on 33s. 373 gears and axle dumps minus the muffler and cold air for that rice whoosh.
AWESOME INFO!!
2 wheel drive or four wheel drive next!!!!!
That’s a no brainer: 4wd
4×4👑
Thermite Spectrum gas or diesel is a no brainer as well duhh.
Depends, 4x4 is more expensive and makes the truck heavier due to the transfer case components. Although the weight is rather negligible in terms of fuel economy. It's really an issue of price
I really wanna see those 2 trucks go head to head offroad!
What would be a good first truck since I’m getting my permit in a couple months
I got a pick up It's a 2002 GMC Sierra with the 5.3 Vortec motor gas and I'm thanking about swapping the engine to a cummins engine instead of the GMC Gasser.What do u thank I should do?I also tow,off-road and I travel a lot too and it snows where I live also.what do u thank I should do
Off road test !!! 🤘🏻
Just got my 2017 F250 platinum power stroke last week an I’m loving it!
Besides the 4.50$ a gallon price now 😅
No kidding
Has the diesel you mentioned in the mileage section of the video been deleted? I have not heard of a non deleted modern diesel getting north of 16-18 miles to the gallon and some much les than that. Thanks for the information. Good video.
Depends on the truck, the tune, the driver etc. But plenty of guys can pull 18+ mpg's in their diesels. Just can't be goosing it everywhere
Looking to buy a used F-350 Diesel DRW. Years 2017+ Anything I should be looking out for?
The off road one could go either way yes the reasons you listed are good but if your in an area where its tighter or theres more crawling focused trails the extra torque of the diesel could help and same with when your in my area where i have to go out into the woods to really do any good off roading the diesel engine would probably do better then a gas but ive never been able to test a diesel truck out there
Uhh no Brainer. I love my 5.9. The sound of my built, straight piped 24 valve 5.9 and I can pull my camper and forget I'm even pulling anything.
Just picked up a 2002 4x4 F350 Lariat with 150k miles on it with the 7.3 diesel pretty much meant other than wear and tear on the seats a little you'd expect for a 20-year-old truck but it's almost immaculate. So you guys throw out numbers Guess what I paid oh yeah I forgot to add It's got this little knob on it that has six positions and when I turn it up the truck seems to go a lot faster!
I think you need to see your lifestyle habits and what you will use the truck for. Personally, I want to tow and carry stuff around. Diesels last long but it can go either direction cause if you take care of things...they last. Diesel is expensive but it depends on the size of the engine as well. You can't compare a 7.3L gasser with a 2.0 bi turbo diesel from the ranger raptor. That engine is huge.

Please make a video doing off-road challenges with CO2 and the K350. That’d be dope!!
diesel no doubt!! also yes off-road challenge please.
Will 33s fit on stocked Chevy silverado
Gas vs Diesel off road video yes please. I'd bet on the Diesel.
Owned the 7.0 powerstroke and loved it.
I love both of them
anything heavier then a skid loader on an appropriately sized trailer for said loader, go diesel, that being said if you’re driving more then 30 min. Away from your shop with that loader and trailer get diesel, fuel economy, heavier duty powertrain, and power will make you glad you did, but if you’re just scooting around town with loader, a bunch of lawn mowers or plowing snow in your area go gasser the oil changes, cheaper fuel, and ease of finding a shop to have work done will make you happier.
Diesel if your gonna tune it or actually use the torque for towing.
Can you build a 97 Chevy 1500 extended cab
I need some help what type and how big of Wheels and tires on my Dodge Ram 1500 single cad 2wd ???
Check out the gallery to find what you like and what fits man! Customoffsets.com/gallery 💪
If we're looking to pay roughly the same amount for a truck, would y'all rather get a newer truck(maybe 15+) or an older diesel (maybe 2000s?)
2007 or older so I can tune the piss out of it and not get in trouble with emmissions
Older diesel any day. Like even 90s Dodges and Fords or a newer GM but nothing above 2007
Gm 2010/2000 duramax 100%
Old diesel
anything per DEF for me
Considering only being on oil field lease roads and don’t to haul a big trailer (Enough for a quad or side by side) a gasser works for me. A $100K-120K CAD diesel isn’t worth it. When you can might as well own a work truck and a personal truck and it’s still affordable with a mortgage
Love both but I only want a truck to haul whatever I please. Diesel all the way!!
I smell a video of you guys off-roading the trucks
Where can I get a grill like that ?
For a first truck, would you guys prefer a 99-03 7.3l or a 09-14 F-150, I also need something that can tow about 8,000 lbs
Definitely a 7.3. Gotta love havin a diesel. We had a 2000 7.3 we put almost 200k miles on it(bought it at 300k) that truck was a beast. Although, I have a 2014 f150 with the 5.0 and it’s very reliable. We’ve pulled about 13k with it
What we pulled was a 12x6 dump trailer with 4ft sides full of wet mulch and it pulled good. Wasn’t too enjoyable, but did it. Either way you could pull, but a diesel would do it better, plus a diesel is a lot more fun tho🤣
SnipperZ Lawn Care Jr. it’s also gotta be a farm truck and I personally wouldn’t want my nice F-150 to go to crap. I plan to get one later but I’m thinking a 7.3 rn
Carson Duim yup, 100% agree. With it gonna be a farm truck, definitely get a 7.3.
SnipperZ Lawn Care Jr. alright👍
If u pick a gasser somethin's gotta be wrong with u
I got a gas truck man because I am starting in life and I wanted to get a duramax in the future
@@jivangill4929 whenever i started life 3 years ago, I start with a new diesel 🤷♂️with my own money
Fernando Sanchez how many years left until you got it payed off 😂
@@kodakbrown4461 not much. I can pay it off right now if I wanted too. I put almost 20k to the truck since I like new truck parts but I got nothing but performance parts only. Plan on lifting it next year or the year after
Yeah my money problems😂
I’ve got a diesel and I wouldn’t off-road it like I’ve done my past v8s. I wouldn’t risk it. Which one is better off-road?
I for sure want to see an off-road challenge between a gas and diesel truck!
I got a mostly stock coyote 4x4 except for the exhaust. And I blow the doors off Cummins, power stroke. Duramax, what ever you got. Even with my big snow tires on I can beat them off the line. I can't wait to add a supercharger.
Diesels have better low end power for off-roading cuz of low gear. Methanol engines are good for off-roading aka going fast to skim across stuff
I have a 15.5 lml and I truly wouldn’t mind a gas. The only thing that made me get a diesel is my long distance hauling heavy loads. For a a daily driver I wish I had a gasser
gas for a daily driver
diesel work truck👍
we need to see the 2 trucks in an all out battle
I daily drive a 1 Ton diesel and have yet to tow once with it lol
I just haul a travel trailer from time to time.. its about 29ft bumper pull... its about 8000lbs.. should I get a gas 250/2500 or a diesel?
Gearing options is more important for towing, unless you're always towing that trailer a lot, I'll just get a diesel for the fuel economy
Would a 2015-2019 Chevy 2500hd duramax be a good first truck? I got 3 year to I get my license just trying to save for a truck
Probably more than you need and very expensive. But yeah awesome trucks. Almost everybody wrecks their first truck, I had already flipped two before I had my learner's permit.
My first truck was a 77 dodge power wagon. Great first truck learned how to work on. 17 years later I now spin wrenches professionally, buy something cheap. As a teenager you will destroy it. Trust me that old power saw a couple ditches and a roll back tow truck. I had one pissed off old man
Dave Gordon ok thanks for the advice,I hope I don’t flip my first truck,my mom has taught me how to drive on the streets and drove on the highway a few times but still learning
@@223ko I hope you don't flip it too. Just wear your seatbelt and don't worry about impressing anybody. You'll be fine
Dave Gordon ok thanks
Off road challenge...Send it!!!
My first truck is a 2000 ram 2500 4x4 with the 5.9 Cummins. I don’t think I’ll touch a gas truck for the rest of my life unless it was like a single cab 5.7/ 5.0 coyote
Resale on diesels are higher for a reason. If you aren’t keeping the truck for the rest of your life then you know what to get..
I would say for a first truck u should go for gas for it’s not so expensive but other then that diesel all the way
I want a diesel but am not getting one bc I can tell u right now I would go through tires, fuel, transmissions, anything u can go through 😂 my dad is helping me with my truck and he said if u want a diesel I won’t help u so I’m going with gas
At the end of the day we all hate hybrids or electrics
Yea but your kids kid is probably gonna have a lifted tesla truck
my 6.slow chevy may not be as cool as a duramax or make the cool noises but Id bet the added fuel cost of diesel offsets the better milage and when you ad in all the extra parts that can fail on a modern diesel it will be a better option. I can put turbos on my 6.0 for pennies compared to just repairing failures on a diesle and make all the power at a fraction of the cost.
I feel overall everything is really based on personal preference. Gas Trucks while the better option for many who don't do much like myself may not be a bad idea however historically and in most cases a full tank of diesel will last 2x as long as a full tank of gas in the same sized truck. for example let's take my uncles 2001, dodge ram, 2500 Cummins diesel and compare it to the same year V8 gas pick up. he is a landscaper (owns a company) and he has had diesels 90% of the time for his business. he had one or 2 gas trucks but they were ultimately replaced by diesel pickups. for one he would go 2 weeks without needing to fill the tank during the season and when plowing in the winter but his gas trucks would have had to be filled 1-2 times a week. for me I don't do a lot but will be in the coming years however even now to get and maintain a gas truck although slightly cheaper would cost exponentially more in fuel than a diesel. at this point It will be 6-8 weeks before I make a decision but short of the cybertruck being available which I won't see until at least mid 2025 a used diesel over a gas seems more logical even if it doesn't get used much in the short term. my thought process for all of this is get what you can use most. don't just get the gas truck because it may save you 1000 a year in maintenance in fuel over the diesel because you don't do much but rather get what you want knowing you have the capabilities of doing more. Everything in life is about mindset. too many are thinking short term rather than long term. If you buy a diesel pick up truck and properly maintain it and take care of it, it will last you a lifetime, whereas a gas truck will eventually break need a new motor and new transmission etc.. Why do you think semi trucks are diesel and not gas.
Is this truck fitment industries?
I’ve always stuck with gassers. Got 237k on my older 1500. Got a newer 2500 with 6.4. Not worried about mpg. Not gonna pay that extra money up front and during maintenance. Not worth it to me
Diesel and dominant only downside is maintenance and repairs
But I mean how often is it?
I would agree Diesel parts are stronger but they are made to handle more power and I see more diesel parts breaking that gasser parts so I think the first match up is a closer comparison than you say most gassers parts last longer and you could say well diesels can take more miles but I don’t know that that statement is true either because we have owned a couple gasser with 300k miles so it’s a very thought first comparison but still go diesel
If you can't get at least a half million out of a diesel before it needs moderate help you're doing something wrong. They're known for going upwards of a million
I have a 2018 chevy 3500 Duramax (diesel)
When he said mayo spicy 🌶I was rolling
The way I go is gas for sport trucks, diesel for work trucks. Usually works out
Just depends on if u haul cars or truck or if not yeah go gas.
Let’s see the off road battle 🏔
You can't ask this question in a subjective way. Because in all counts minus weekly towing the gas option is better. Im the enthusat market place the costs of the diesel don't matter the fact annually its costing about 3k more then the gas truck
We want a rematch of the tug of war!
Square body gasser💯💯💯
Dude I was more interested in the Mig 15 chillin on the ground at 4:05 over the dodge
Take them off-road!!! I'll drive up there to see it!!! Gas VS Diesel!!
So is Banker's new truck a diesel?
If it's midsize. Get a diesel. Especially a inline straight 4 cylinder diesel not a gasser V6. If You want a half or quarter tonner get a gasser. The diesel engines in the big boys are super expensive not only to buy but to maintain as well and if it breaks you'll want that 4 cylinder diesel. Less moving parts and lasts longer but on the big boys get a gasser they're probably the same cost as a midsize inline straight 4 cylinder diesel.
By quarter i mean 3 quarter tonne
I’d prefer gas. It can hold gears for longer. Rev higher. And in my opinion it sounds better. And it’s easier to just get in and go in the winter with gas.
7.3 till I die.
