Interesting discussion for sure. If had to choose between regular fuel and diesel, I probably would have went for the diesel option. Dont ask me why. Just something about it that would have made me choose it. laugh.gif

No, just because of the cost of Diesel here in the US. It fluctuates too much and can get quite high.

Only if it was a turbo diesel
The fuel fluctuating doesnt bother me being that it will usually get 45+mpg
