it is not an equivalent trade off...some folks like the acceleration of a car and debate the Diesel's fall short in that...I personally think, I wouldn't be buying a SUV if I wanted high acceleration...on the other hand the torque of the Diesel is as good as the 50i...much better than the 35i...so there's an incentive...make sense?
