My point exactly. I'd loathe that smell. And I already hate the caucophonous clatter of the old MB diesels.. so that plan is a big negatory.

Now some of the new direct injection turbodiesels...that would be a different story..

Yeah... gas prices suck... esp when your $2.30 premium gas decides to say no to the auto-shutoff and spill a good gallon all over the side of your car :madfawk:

im sick of their excuses.

"refinery had a fire ...." raise 30 cents

"we might have a shortage due to the events in the middle east" .... raise 40 cents!

"there might be a shortage next year..." ....raise another 50 cents!


WTF MATE??
