With diesel being about 25 percent higher in cost than regular gas where is the net savings?
Just saying/asking... :h
Yeah, people almost always try comparing gas and diesel by the cost per gallon but what you're actually buying is energy content.

All this according to our faithful and honest Government Agency, the EPA.
