ONLY reason to own one of these pseudo elitist over gadgeted inefficient tanks: They'll run on veggie oil, heated or unheated. That's what i like about them, and they're marginally more comfortable than my other cars.

What i dislike. Piss poor fuel economy on diesel or veggie; diabolically hard to work on, super expensive parts, electric windows that don't work and vacuum operated stuff like door locks that ought to be manual.
