Diesel has even more energy than gasoline.

Diesel is louder and harder to start in the winter.

In Afganistan, I would tape a couple MRE handwarmers around the fuel filter and let them do their thing. If your batteries are good, your diesel should start with no problem.

“Diesel is louder and harder to start in the winter.”

Agree - but preppers have different objectives. Some want to get through a post-hurricane scenario, where you still have civilization.

But for the serious stuff, having ANYTHING that attracts attention is simply not a good idea.
