Gas vs Diesel

Can't Post |

I'm going to be buying a new pickup within the next 12-18 months and am leaning towards a diesel due to the "more power" engine. (I have a 26' RV travel trailer that I will be towing with it.) My question is, "How available is diesel in Mexico and what is the cost running?"

The last time I filled up it was 4.6 pesos/liter.
