It's modern diesel engine (2019). The exhaust that comes out is cleaner than many small 2 stroke motorcycle engines, lawn mower engines,etc. Also way cleaner than that old Mercedes diesel you are running your biodiesel in. I live right where the interstate dumps into the city, we have soot on our windows. The problem is real, but the diesel trucks, big trucks, are 95% of the problem, not the 5k miles I drive a year in my truck. |

While true, that's a pretty low bar. I wouldn't bring that up as an argument in defense of it, because it comes off kind of like "at least it's not burning bunker oil!"
The rest of your situation makes perfect sense, though. You need something with that power and size regularly enough to justify owning one, and rather than have 2 vehicles, you just use the one you already have for other things. That's completely reasonable.
