    Good information everyone , I'm looking at a Diesel for 3 major reasons, fuel economy, towing capacity, engine durability. But at the same time.. Damn a gas burner is so much cheaper.. initally..

    97 Jeep Cherokee (Inline 6cyl 4.0L). I get 20MPG with a even mix of city/hwy. If its all hwy, I can get about 25mpg.
