It's funny and sad that people believe that a diesel engine costs more to make (at least not 10K more). It is a profit margin that they have found people will pay. At some point, they will raise the price difference enough that people won't pay it. Until then, they keep the public believing that it costs a lot more to make them and they pass that along to the consumer. Why is there an up charge for the 6.2 or for the EB, it's profit. A 6.2L may be less expensive to build than a 5.0.
Again, the consumer has (for years now) asked for a product (1/2 ton diesel), and we have not gotten it.

For me, if they drop installing the 6.2 in the 150 it had better stay in the SuperDuty. I want, or should say I need the Power it offers. I'd hate to have to find it elsewhere.

If they drop it from the SD, it would be because it's getting replaced with something with more power. There are tons of gasser SDs out there because most fleets don't need a diesel or the price tag that goes with it. I see it staying in at least the SD, probably stay in the F150 as long as the Raptor stays.
