Diesel fuel is used in the torque converter. We mix one gallon ATF to four gallons #2 diesel because today's fuel 'aint what it used to be' so that's the reason for the ATF.
Thirsty is a good definition but I think ravenous is better. The stats claim it has a range of 100 miles on 125 gallons of gasoline. I don't know if that's under load or not.
