Propane has never been, and probaly never will be cheaper for any use or power level here in the northeast. And, since LP is a made from petroleum products, price trends over time tend be similar for all the petro-based fuels.
Now, I know there are places out west where propane and CNG can be half the price it is here. That can be a different story.
As to fuel storage problems? Not much a problem with diesel since it will keep 10 years pretty easy, if necessary. Gasoline stores pretty well up to a year if in a air-tight tank, and longer if you put preservatives in. I used some four-year old gasoline this summer that had been treated twice with Stabil and it was still fine.
Propane can be handy for people who already have big propane storage tanks, but not cheaper to run equipment. Propane can also be nice when hooked to equipment that rarely gets used, i.e. standy-by generators.
