Diesel Secret is a huge sham. Its people like that that give biofuels a bad name in general society... "We've got a secret technology that you can buy for a nominal fee!" Its like an ad in the back of a Popular Mechanics magazine for a levitating device. "You know its perfect, because we told you it is! Who needs expert opinions, independent research, and years and years of on the road evaluation by impartial testing agencies and standards agencies? Not us!"

Sorry for the rant. Clean car, though.

peace,
sam

Thumbs up

It's close to me but as a non-runner, I don't think I'd shell out $1k for it.

Too bad it has a crap fender tossed on it. Can't imagine the interior... but they're cheap too.
