The latest Mercedes diesels have ...

23,000 psi fuel pressure

Electric injectors that fire seven times per combustion event

Turbochargers with electrically-controlled variable-pitch blades.

Produce one horsepower per cubic inch

Run just fine for 13,000 miles between oil changes.

Compare new Fords to this and decide which is crude.
