The power to MPG thing is what gets me about diesels. Once a get a bottle heater for my nitrous bottle, I think I'll crack 500 hp at the wheels, and that's still w/o a lockup converter, so my efficiency isn't the best. But I can get over 20 mpg with the same vehicle! I have E load range tires also, but LA freeways can be pretty jarring cause they're so beat up from the big trucks, so I usually run the tires pretty low.
