On base (Camp Pendleton) used to be cheaper but anymore it has been just as high as some places out in town.

An imperial gallon is 1.25 US gallons if I am not mistaken.

Yep! $9.95 per UK Gallon of Diesel. There are 4.454 litres to one Gallon over here and Petrol (Gasoline) is a little less expensive but we are paying about 75% tax in that gallon figure and I think the American motorist's contribution is about 12%.
It's one of the reasons why UK & European vehicles are very prolific diesel-sippers with many Saloons or Estates (Station-wagons) typically yielding around 50mpg as standard.
I have a diesel 1992 Defender 90, 2.5TDi which, cruising at a steady 50mph on a relatively even motorway/highway, will return up to 40mpg but in 'normal' driving, about 27mpg.
I was looking at placing a post somewhere on this site (new at this!) seeking some information about any similar US model vehicles to the Land Rover Defender 90. At 2.5lt, it will tow 3.5t, permanent 4WD but all the American vehicles are between 2.7lt and a whopping 7.3lt units! Could you suggest anything reasonably similar, as I will be moving to upstate NY later this year. I cannot afford the US prices for a Defender!!
