If you can get a Dmax for the price of a 6.2, do it. Resale alone makes it worth it. You can't touch a Dmax around here for less than 45k, and that's going to Dave Smith.

If i didn't love my 01 xcab turbo gas truck and had to choose between it or my 07 xcab dmax, the Dmax hands down! Better town and highway mileage, drives awesome! Tons of power with the tune I have on it and will pull a house like its not even there. I get about 18-20 highway with it, 11-13 towing my 22' enclosed trailer loaded (10k) and 16ish around town. Best I get with my turbo gas truck is 10-14 around town and 15.5 on the highway.
