We just did a 8,000 mile trip with our 2020 GMC 2500HD Duramax Denali pulling our 303RLS fifth wheel which weighs about 6 ton. We ran slightly over speed limits except for Montana and Wyoming where limit was 80 MPH. Ran at about 72 mph there. Includes a fair bit of mountain driving in western Canada and USA. Our average fuel economy on the whole trip was just under 12 MPG.

According to GMC.ca, the 2022 GMC 2500HD pro with gas engine is $67,103. The same truck with the diesel is $73,648. These prices are Canadian funds. That works out to $11,545 difference at retail list price. For this money you get almost twice as much torque, much better fuel economy plus excellent resale value.

But he has a 1/2 ton. I almost guarantee it will be 20 k to trade to an HD easily plus I was pricing 3500 because getting a 3/4 ton isn’t smart IMO
But like I said my comment came before he was talking about handling issues It was only a thread about economics and my opinion stands that unless you are towing consistently diesel doesn’t add up2021 Imagine 2400 BH

I get the same crappy gas mileage pulling a 2400bh with a 3/4 ton gasser. Personally its my daily driver so I didn't wanna fork over the extra 10K for the diesel. I can buy lots of gas for that same 10K lol. Like others have said, towing full time or very often, go for the diesel! Both are very capable trucks! Have fun, stay safe, and enjoy camping!!!!!

I don't know where you are getting 14K from. I paid less than 10K.
The truck in my signature is my third diesel.. And there will be no loss when it is time to sell. My vehicle cost of ownership has stayed consistent from 2001 to date. About 4K a year.
A Gasser with 150K on the clock is considered worn out. A diesel with 150K is considered broke in. Used diesels sell fast for good money. The only downside is the price of admission. Once you pay that, it is easy to stay in a diesel. And if the day ever comes that I want to go back to gas (not likely) I will do VERY well.2021 398M Full Body Paint 8k axles. LRH tires. Disc brakes.
