Guys diesel is not about the price/ gallon - Its abt MPG ... you can get over 40 some mpg on highway, try that with a gas turbo charged engine keeping weight more or less the same ... higher compression ratio's and natural combustion (no spark plugs) cause these sluggish machines to deliver more miles to a gallon.. now dont change the oil 11k miles or u'll toast that engine at 100k
