I don't think the diesels on the F550 are more to maintain. The oil changes cost more, but you don't do them as often. With regards to mileage, a V10 starts going down hill after 30K, a diesel isn't even broke in. I noticed an increase in mileage on my Durmax pickup when I hit 50K.
The other reason for picking the Super C is 50 amp with 2 air conditioners. I also like the fact that if the worst should happen and we are involved in a front end collision, we have that diesel engine in front to absorb some of the impact. I also like the fact that I can fuel at a truck stop and not have to worry about the height of the overhead canopy.
That being said, diesels are not for everyone.
