I agree it sucks up fuel but accelerate as slow as a diesel and it wont suck as much, might not be as good as the diesel but it is an advantage to have that optional power on tap especially if you are not concerned about fuel and your bigger concern is safety in an emergency to move fast or to get up to the speed of traffic at a much greater rate which is an advantage that the diesel does not have on tap. Seems everyone wants to talk fuel saving advantage but leave out the other advantages that by majority is more important. More people want performance over saving fuel. If we could have both then great but it doesn't work that way. The diesel by majority is at a disadvantage in performance during acceleration unless under a very heavy load then things start to balance and shift to an advantage for the diesel. Hence, transports do well with diesel, light trucks, not so much an advantage unless you care less about performance and just want to save fuel, but then that is an oxymoron since you pay more for the motor and never see a return.
