I can answer part of the diesel fuel cost question. Way back when, before the mid 70's diesel was abundant because it was essentially a waste by-product of gasoline production. The fuel crises came and went and there was a sudden discovery that diesel engines were more economical than spark combustion engines. This lead to a couple of problems, first Detroit tried to convert spark ignition engines to diesel, with the crazy results that followed, and more real diesel engines made their way into light trucks and passenger cars. Demand for diesel today is such that it is no longer a by-product of making something else, but a desired product. In addition it is being manipulated to reduce sulphur and particulates adding to the cost. If there weren't so many diesel powered vehicles diesel fuel would still be dirt cheap.
