As long as we are paying a 60-70 cent premium for diesel over regular gas it makes it hard to justify a diesel unless you really do need it for the torque.
Where in the heck are you paying 60-70 cent premium for diesel??? Right now diesel is 8 cents/litre (30.24 cents/us gal) above gas and this for winter fuel. All summer they are equal where we live.
I am from Alberta but winter in Mesa AZ. I am driving a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the Ecodiesel engine (big mistake but another story). Down here you see regular gas as low as $2.55 per gallon. The cheapest diesel fuel is $3.39 per gallon with most stations selling it for $3.49 a gallon. The diesel engine will never be a big seller in light duty vehicles in N.A. if this price spread remains.
