You also have to figure in that today's diesel is not the same fuel as a couple years back. The government mandated the upgrade to the Low Sulfur grade. Way back around '91-92, they dropped the sulfur content in about half. Then in '04 and '07 they passed the latest regs. Look for more in 2010.
Mercedes/Benz actually quit importing diesels to the US because our grade of fuel had to many contaminates/particulates in it. Diesel is also the major fuel in most other countries around the word.
