This is great news!! Ever since I bought my TDI Jetta 4 years ago I've been sold on diesels. Getting as high as 56 mpg, and 760 miles on one tank of diesel is hard to beat. Even if I drive it like I stole it I get around 48 mpg! (Plus I don't look like I'm driving a spaceship ::cough::Prius::cough::). I'm looking forward to the American manufacturers coming out with more and more vehicles equipped with diesels. This should help bring down the price of diesel powered vehicles. Plus I can look forward to getting a bigger car since I have two kids now.
Price of diesel isn't really too big of an issue. If you think about it, if you're getting twice the distance on a tank, then you're really only paying half the price for that gallon of diesel than joe smoe is for that gallon of gas. Then when diesel is cheaper than regular unleaded you're really saving!
I have 87,000 miles on my Jetta and I'm just getting it broke in! No major mechanical problems and I hope to see 200,000+ miles like some of the other TDI owners are. Not too many gas car owners can claim the same.
new clean burning diesels are supposed to put out very minimal emissions (comparable to, if not even better than, gas burning engines). That is why they’ll be able to sell them again in CA and NJ. Then to run bio diesel on top of that, you would be hard pressed to find any gas, or even gas/electric, car that could beat its emissions.
