It's time for a diesel census!
A few years ago I did similar poll asking people which diesel models they like. This time I'm asking people which cars they actually own, and I mean currently (no past ownerships). Please don't include junk or parts cars, only cars in running condition that your household owns. This should be fun! I predict that W123 diesels are still the most abundant.

[QUOTE=DieselAddict;1243727]Holy crap, that's a lot of miles! Does your Isuzu still have the original engine and tranny?
original engine, and 4 speed trans. have gone thru lots of tires, battries, brakes, 1 complete rebuilt front end, 4 u-joints, 3 alternaters, starter pulled twice and rebuilt average mpg for last few years is 36mpg. use to get 40mpg, but dropped with the last set of tires, goodyear (never again) radio no longer works, odometer stopped and 491,000, but use a hand held gps to keep up with miles. never had a/c. still runs but this is my fall, winter, spring daily. with no a/c. bought 1981 mb 240d with only 170,000. Thinking if an isuzu could last 500,00 then this mb should last me a good 5 years.

Yes this is a diesel poll, so even in the "Other" category put only diesel vehicles and then you can specify the actual model in your post. I just realized I didn't include the fairly rare W140 diesel, but I wouldn't have space for it anyway because the poll can only have up to 10 entries so just include it in the "Other".

Anyone here with a 190D or a W140 300SD or S350D? Those are the only two remaining US MB diesels (I think) that I wasn't able to squeeze into the poll. I suspect they may be hiding in the Others category.
