Are you citing prices for Canadian gallons or US gallons? Big difference.
Highway diesel here in central New York is $4.20 (US gallon) today while gasoline is $3.69 (US gallon). Dyed medium-sulfur off-road diesel is $3.49.
When the big plan first came out to cook the sulfur out of diesel and then add lube back in - the price was not supposed to go up more then 5%. Seems like somebody goofed or lied. And to add insult to injury the ultra-low sulfur diesel has less BTU energy then the old diesel fuel.
That all said, my 92 Dodge 4WD extended cab with a 5.9 Cummins gets 19 MPG on a highway run. My sons gas 3/4 ton 4WD extended-cab Chevy truck gets 15 at best. So, if I drive 19 miles I pay $4.20 if I use highway fuel. My son goes 20 miles and pays $4.92. The diesel still wins.
That being said, anybody who's going to go in hock for $50,000 on a new diesel truck and think they're going to save anything - needs mental help. I'd be sick just paying the sales tax on the deal.

Many times, as a small boy, I would cross the fence behind the house my grandparents lived in and walk down the turn row to where granddaddy would be cultivati
