I would think the better option there would be a 2500 Suburban with the 6.0 gas. It would match up in performance to the 6.0 Powerstroke and I would imagine they would be about the same on fuel consumption.

If you were willing to put money into bullet proofing and tuning the powerstroke, then the Diesel Excursion would be the way to go.
