It’s an interesting concept, but if you have to spend a bunch of money up front to get the benefits of saving 11 gallons of diesel a day, the cost better be pretty low to make that a worthwhile investment. Long term I could see this catching on, but I can understand someone not wanting to be out of pocket a lot of money hoping to recoup the cost quickly enough.
Which is cheaper–burning diesel all night long, or plugging in? Obviously the cost of the former depends on the price of gas, but neither cost was mentioned in the article.
