You should thank your lucky stars that gas is so inexpensive in the US. I'm living in Germany and a gallon of regular gas is $6.97. Diesel is $5.64/gallon... That's why I drive a Smart car here...3 cylinder diesel and 70 miles/gallon. My good car is a clean diesel BMW 320d...30 miles/gallon at 125MPH on the autobahn... You gotta love the autobahn...
