At one time, for example, the 1970s, buying diesel powered cars made all the sense in the world for me. As long as they were reliable diesels and there wasn't one like that on this side of the pond. Before the gas crisis hit courtesy of the middle east cartel, I had purchased my first disel engined car and when it had just begun I bought a second just like the first one. I then had 2 diesel engined cars that got twice the mpg of my previous gassers. I had installed 2 550 gallon underground tanks and had the Coop deliver diesel fuel. I never once stood in a gas line and the fuel savings alone paid for those cars. Those days are gone. So much R&D has been done in the meantime to make gassers more efficient which was mostly caused by General Motors making diesels so unpopular with the american public. A lot of things have happened over the years and now people are looking at electric powered vehicles as the next step up. Right now, with the present state of the art, I believe 75% of our passenger vehicles in the USA could be ell electric. I'm not ready for it because I routinely make 1000 mile trips. In fact, I'm making one tomorrow. But, anyone who drives no more than 250 miles in any given day would probably be ahead with an EV.
