I think diesel engines are a superior technology compared to gasoline engines.

Years back, diesel was always cheaper than gas. For about the last decade now, it is always more.

Makes me glad I don't have a diesel right now (purely because of the fuel cost) but a veggie-diesel would be fantastic!

No sulpher and no $4 a gallon! (yeah, tehcnically you still gotta track road taxes....)
