The problem (as I understand it) is that oil gets set a price of $X no
matter where it comes from. I think this price is set by the people who
buy and sell oil as a commodity.
The only impact they feel is that the limo is a little more expensive to
run from month to month.

There are tons of diesels out there that kick the sh*t outta the hybrids in

Oh, I know the reason why, the idiot environmentalists in my and other
states. :(
But they have not been valid reasons for a long time as far as I am
concerned. As you said, the diesel of today is not what it was back in the

either that, or a nice Nissan Frontier Diesel.
Nissan's diesels are very very reliable worldwide too..
However, I am looking forward to a Diesel Toyota truck.
Unfortunately, I won't be able to get one that is made in Japan.
