I made the switch in August of 2011, no problems at all, and the MGP has been great

It's just tough to see any real fuel savings here in Vegas. Diesel is $3.89/gallon, premium is $3.29. That's about an 18% difference. I'd have to average over 21 mpg vs. the 18 mpg I get in town with my 2005 X5 4.4i. Then add in the cost difference between my E53 and an E70 and I'd have to drive a whole lot of miles in mine before the E70 makes financial sense.

Don't get me wrong, I love diesels, having owned 2 crew cab diesel dually trucks in the past to tow the race trailer. If I could get one in Imola red, I might make the fuzzy logic work! :thumbup:
