To buy @ the gas station, yes. That wasn't always true. 10 years ago diesel was cheaper as it should be! Diesel is less refined than unleaded so, if there are less steps there is less labor, less chemical interaction, etc. Unfortunately, fuel is a commodity regulated by supply & demand. 18 wheelers aren't going away anytime soon & they consume alot of diesel fuel! They are usually owned by big trucking companies who foot the bill, so to speak. Diesel engines are more durable in the long run so, it comes down to a matter of preference. Hope that helps or at least entertained you.

Why is super unleaded gas in Iowa cheaper than unleaded 87?

Because it has Ethanol in it. The Ethanol increases the octane and lowers the price.AnswerBecause it has ethanol in it. Ethanol actually decreases the power of gasoline, and subsequently decreases mileage as well. Interestingly, it also makes gasoline more expensive- BUT - this is Iowa, and the government is subsidizing the addition of ethanol to gasoline. In Missouri, where the government does not subsidize, gasoline with ethanol is MORE expensive than its Iowa Counterpart. Long story short, its cheaper because of government subsidies.
