Why aren't all diesel owners doing this already? Hmmm, do I want to pay $4 for a gallon or $1?<br><b>References : </b><br> Just use homebrewed biodiesel, duh.

Have you noticed, depending where you live, I am on vacation, in Florida, and diesel is $4.19. and in Ohio, it is $4.09, would it be worth spending that much? I don't think so.<br><b>References : </b><br> But… Have you noticed, depending where you live, I am on vacation, in Florida, and diesel is $4.19. and in Ohio, it is $4.09, would it be worth spending that much?

Back then diesel was cheaper than gas, he got better mileage... he was spending almost 50% less on maintenance per year than I was spending on a '75 VW Dasher.<br><b>References : </b><br> DIESEL is more cost effective over the LONG run

Even with a bit higher per gallon fuel cost, diesels will get way more miles per gallon. I don't think long term you'd likely spend any more for a diesel, and in most cases less. You're also going to get way more miles out of your car. The diesel Mercedes that he loved had 320,000 miles on it and was still going strong when someone wrecked into him and totaled it.<br><b>References : </b><br> My husband loved an early 80s diesel Mercedes he had.
