My 2006 Jeep Liberty - diesel engine model - was also the first new car I've ever purchased. A chain of gas stations here in Las Vegas sells a bio-blend of diesel fuel, and I wanted to support retail sales of that fuel as well as drive a car that I thought would be more environmentally friendly.

 

 

My hope is to convert to 100% biodiesel here in the near future, as gas prices have made even the biodiesel blend prohibitively expensive. I have also been informed that the diesel engine will require less maintenance and will last me much longer than a traditional gasoline model - here's hoping!
