Alternate fuels / propulsion have always been kind of an interest but have no basis of comparison for these types of vehicles.
The diesels get an average of 5 to 7 mpg Adam.
The diesels typically take 30 to 40 gallons to fill up.

So whereas the mpg might be similar,the cost savings are immense.
We burn 30 to 40 thousand gallons per month of diesel fuel.
