Diesel will always give you better fuel mileage as diesel fuel itself contains more BTU (the measure of thermal energy) in a given quantity than compared to gas.So therefore a diesel engine can extract more mileage out of a gallon of diesel fuel as there is more energy to extract out of that gallon as compared to a gallon of gas.Considering this, this is why diesel fuel prices would have to rise considerably over gas before the two would be equal on a cost per mile basis.

Gas mileage is a term that means the distance the vehicle travels on a unit quanity of fuel (gasoline). For cars in countries that use English units of measure, it is expressed in miles per gallon (mpg). In countries that use metric units of measure it is expressed in kilometers per liter (kpl). The referenced link will explain how to calculate it in English units. The term gas mileage is often used when referring to diesel powered vehicles even though the correct terminalogy would be diesel fuel mileage.
