Actually, diesels DO save you a lot on "fuel."  Diesel is less than regular 
gas in most places, and at worst, about the same.  Our OLD, OLD diesel ('85 
Ford) gets 10-11 mpg pulling our heavy three-horse steel gooseneck loaded, 
and the newer diesels get far better mileage than that.  So yes, you can cut 
your fuel bill by anywhere from a third to half.
