No.

Diesel fuel's price depends entirely on your location and what era you are in.

How long will a diesel motor run on unleaded?

Short answer? It won't! Not even for a little while. Long answer... If you screw up and accidentally pour some unleaded into a fuel tank that is partially filled with diesel, it MIGHT run... IF you haven't diluted the diesel fuel too much. Back in the old days, truckers would sometimes mix a little gasoline into their diesel fuel in the winter to help prevent low-temperature gelling. These days, diesel fuel is winterized seasonally, and most diesel trucks and cars come with fuel system heaters to prevent gelling anyway.
