Fremicus,
Thanks for reporting your excellent diesel experience. It is almost a well kept secret in this country. The poor diesels that came out in the 1970s and 1980s seemed to have soured most people in this country on the technology.
Diesels continue to advance faster than gas engines and are now winning races like the 24 Hours of LeMans against gas engines. With $1000 worth of bolt on parts my Ford 7.3 is now a hot rod capable of 24 mpg on flat country when not towing.
