So how is diesel fuel more expensive?
Dont tell my you only looked at cost per gallon and stopped there.

It's the usual stopping point. There is no understanding of cpm and operational costs, much less ownership costs.
On my truck so long as diesel is no more than 50-cents higher than gasoline the " fuel economy" is a wash . . but as the diesel engine is designed with a B50 life of 350k miles, it pulls away from the gas version at around 150k miles of service (given initial expense differences). That it can also do more work at any point along those miles is left from this comparison.
