Personally i'd rather have the 70's diesel pumping out black soot, the "emissions equipment" on modern diesels really kills their long term reliability.

Ya most of the current emission equipment is obsolete crap.

Diesel + Propane is much better!

Even Cummins FINALLY got dragged (with $6 million from the Propane industry) to finally build a propane engine 375 hp and 880 lb.-ft. of torque. (in road real world testing and bench-testing atm). But it's passing all their design standards including longevity.

Webinar worth watching if anyone is interested the topic.

Pure Propane = Sweet, clean, super-reliable, and cheaper engine to build, run, and maintain.
