Question

Should I buy a diesel or a subcompact gas car to save on the cost of fuel?

Answer 1

no diesel is going up more than gas

Answer 2

It depends on how much you plan to spend to determine if you'll be able to eventually save any money.

If it costs you $15,000 to save $100 a week on gas, it's going to take you a lot of weeks in order to just break even.

Answer 3

For most people, the answer is neither.  The best financial decision for most folks is not to buy anything, just drive less.

Answer 4

In Buffalo, NY, diesel is way more expensive than Gasoline...

however if you can convert it to run biodiesel (used oil/grease from resturants, etc) than you would save alot of money
