Anything can be beaten. Remember, there is always somebody faster, stronger and smarter.

Diesels are designed to be a work engine, thus the reason they put them in a semi. Your issue with diesels has to do more with maturity of the driver then the fact it is a diesel. No different then making fun of Camaro or mustang owners.

The 5.9L Cummins 12 Valve is a great motor. Cheap and easy to work on and runs forever if you take care of it. I have one with 350K miles, the truck fell apart before I had any issues with the motor. And it runs on a mechanical pump. All he needs to do is turn the pump up for more power.
