Its just depressing how slooooow the manufacturers are in implementing diesels....I hope the big 3 all collapse upon themselves....they have it coming. And lets let those euro diesels on in!

Yea, me and my father were having a conversation about this yesterday. How the Hybrids are just a joke because you can get the same MPG out of a newer Diesel with less maintenance and they will last longer. (Trying to convince him to get my mother a diesel) But starting at the second Paragraph, its funny how the Reference the W123, basically saying that the car line started the whole diesel car innuendo.

I like the fact that they state "Biodiesel over B5 will void the warranty".
