... if you hate checking your oil right after an oil change, because you have to actually look close when the oil is clear.

You might own a diesel if your wife tells you the dog starts pacing the yard, barking her head off 2 minutes before you pull in the driveway. You might own a diesel if your friends think you're stuck up because you, your wife, teenage daughter, and son all drive their own Mercedes.

you jump into your other vehicle, a gasser, and turn on the key, wait 15-20 seconds, and then start it.

My dad use to drive his truck (1988 7.3L Banks F350) every weekend out to the orchard, now he drive the old Honda to save on fuel cost. My step mom says he sneaks up on her all the time because the dog can no longer hear him getting off the highway!
