I am passing on the 300 HPDI. Made spreadsheet to analyze long term costs (operating and maintenance). If I put at least 150 hours a year (I was at 150 in 6 month on the old motor) then the cost to operate the HPDI is about the same as a F250. Cost of 90 octane non-ethenol fuel, and higher fuel burn for idel/troll were the two big factors.

For a used engine, I think an F250 is the way to go. Now if I decide to go new, then a 300 Suzuki looks to be the best deal all around.

Thank you everyone for posting your numbers
