He is NOT averaging 60mpg, no reason to let people believe that the average person is getting that mileage. Diesel fuel is 25% MORE than RUG right now, if you do the cost per mile a high mileage gas car is slightly cheaper to run per mile.
So hard numbers for you
my manual 2002 151488 miles/3101.82 gallons = 48.834 mpg lifetime
wifes auto 2002 45510 miles/1057.73 gallons = 43.026 mpg lifetime
