And in europe, diesel fuel is cheaper because it gets taxed differently. diesel engines are much tougher, more pulling power (torque), get better mileage compared to gasoline engines, and they just last longer.

Also diesel engines have a lot longer life than gasoline engines if properly maintained they can go up to a million miles before needing a rebuild. If all the trucks on the road today were gasonine powered there would be far more traffic jams due to slow trucks.

Big trucks don't need the fast acceleration of a passenger car, and once they get up to speed diesel burns much more efficiently. The other factor is the longevity of the engine itself.
