Report from Chile

Just spent 10 days in the wonderful country of Chile.

Lots and Lots of diesels.

VW trucks
Ford Ranger pickup diesels
Toyota car and pickup diesels
Hyundai diesel vans
My Chev Colorado in a diesel
Gasoline was about $6/gal. Diesel slightly cheaper.

But ... Only saw one MB diesel, a 300TD at Vina del Mar.

I was passed by a MB SUV going about 90+ mph on route 199 outside Pucon.

End of report.

Walking isn't a lost art: one must, by some means, get to the garage.
