feel free to PM with questions.
for us, the car paid for itself in about 18,000 miles.

 

the car starts and stops on diesel, but once it's warmed up you drive on wvo. so you can go hundreds of miles on one gallon of diesel.

if you run on straight diesel, i think it's in the ~24 mpg range also. but we didn't do any real diesel-only driving when there was free fuel to use

 

thanks folks. it's still for sale, have gotten several inquiries but so far nothing solid. we're probably going to put it on ebay when we have a chance.
