Diesel compared to Gas Cost Per Mile

Messing around...
I've got 2 vehicles 98 Ford Explorer (20 MPG)and 92 Mercedes 300D 2.5 (30 MPG)

I was figuring out what car is cheaper to drive and What the compared fuel prices would have to be. I was surprised.

Ford @ 3.29 Gal. was .17 cents mile
Mercedes @3.89 was .13 cents mile

To cost the same per mile.
Gas @ 3.30 gallon diesel would have to cost 4.79
Diesel @ 3.89 gallon gas would have to cost 2.68

I did up a little spread sheet that will compare 2 vehicles.

Let me know what you think.
