[QUOTE="soberups, post: 778303, member: 14668"] When gasoline evaporates, it doesnt just vanish. It pollutes the air that you are breathing with toxic, cancer causing chemicals. Diesel only [I]looks[/I] dirtier because it does not evaporate as easily as gasoline. As far as cost is concern, diesel is actually [I]cheaper[/I] than gasoline when you factor in the increased mileage of a diesel vs. gas engine. There are more BTU's of energy in a gallon of diesel fuel than there are in a gallon of gasoline, and a diesel engine is far more efficient and converting those BTU's into forward motion of the vehicle. I absolutely [I]love[/I] my diesel 2006 VW Jetta TDI. It gets over 40 MPG on locally-produced, non-toxic, renewable biodiesel. [/QUOTE]
