| I would have to disagree with diesel being higher than gas by my house its 1 cent higher for diesel than gas. It depends on where go to fuel up as prices vary a lot. Im sorry a gas engine truck is never going to pull anything easier than a diesel truck. Diesels are made for pulling and last twice as long as gas engines. Thiers more EPA rules on diesels than gas and diesels are now cleaner and more fuel efficient than gas. Diesels have progressed a lot in the last 10 years alone (Im a diesel mechanic) The reason diesel fuel is usealy more expensive than gas is theres more taxes on diesel fuel, the taxes vary from state to state and besides diesel fuel like kerosene is a by product of refining. It realy should be about a dollar a gallon, but they see all those semis on the highway that hold hundreds of gallons and they want fuel tax from them. All locomotives, school buses, UPS trucks, Fed Ex trucks are all diesels for a reason. | |
