Talking Coolest thing about your diesel...

Can't vouch for all model years, but here's my Top 10 that puts a smile on my face about my '99 TD...
1. Plenty of torque at any engine speed
2. Cruisin' at 55 with that low 1500 RPM purr
3. 500+ miles per refill
4. That wonderful smell in my garage
5. Most comfortable seats ever (especially the smooth slide into the driver seat right after conditioning the leather)
6. (Almost) No rattles, squeaks, squeals normally associated with lesser chassis'
7. That everrrr-so-gentle downshift to 4th from overdrive as you coast down a hill to give you the torgue if you suddenly need it
8. Charcoal air filter
9. The Monoblade
10. Watching all the thump-thump-neon-light-BMW-owning-22 year-olds fly by me on the highway and taking satisfaction in the fact that they "just don't get it" yet
