Hey now! I used to drive a VW Rabbit diesel! :-) It was a great
car - took me to work and school every day and I only had to fill it up
every couple of weeks. Just backed into the barn and pumped 10 gallons
or so from the ag diesel tank (at 60 cents per gallon). Needless to say
it was quite economical! :-) Enjoyable to drive too, though it
certainly wasn't a speed demon. Diesel is wonderful! In fact, as soon
as (financially) possible, I plan to add a diesel vehicle to my .sig. ;-)
I'm shooting for a Ram 3500 though, so it might be quite some time. :-(
