You might be having good luck or the way you drive and maintain your vehicles is excellent. Not doubting that. But in general, for the mass market and commercial, diesel has become untenable. Especially for a business.

Probably time to switch to EV then if diesel is apparently so problematic.
Otherwise, companies seem to be surviving just fine with millions of heavy diesel semi-tractors and medium duty trucks on the road with billions of miles driven on diesel engines with DPF, SCR, and EGR. I wonder what their secret is to keeping their fleets on the road. Modern commercial trucks are pretty reliable to start with.
