Well damn. Guess if I want a diesel car I should move to California. Good thing they go easy on emissions regulations.

Silly Trump, Mercedes has already had its way with US legislators and laws. Good luck little buddy.

I can buy a Cruze with a gas engine for $17,850. Chevy says it will cost $23,170 for the diesel. Base price for each. But let’s look again. Using your $21,800 for the “equivalent” Cruze, and based on 87 octane at $2.306 a gallon on average, and $2.539 per gallon for diesel, you’ll never make the money back based on…

Both entry-level vehicles for their respective fuel types, both 2.0L turbocharged engines, and both make 180hp. But yeah, for giggles we’ll do the 328i, which works out to 62,500 miles (an average of just over 5 years). The advantage still goes to gasoline unless you hold on to your vehicles like the average American…

Good to know, but gas is still cheaper.

Still costs more than 87 octane, but let’s use your position. A BMW 328d has to drive for 225,000 miles before it breaks even fuel-cost-wise with a 93-octane-swilling BMW 320i. Diesel would be great if you didn’t pay a premium for it at the dealer.

It’s not operating in a vacuum considering those figures are what manufacturers all use for their advertising. True, the figures are not accurate, but unless every person drives their vehicle the same way, on the same road, in the same fashion through the same weather with the same shoes etc, using the EPA figures is…

So the advantage was to people that could pay a premium for a Volvo or Mercedes?

Looking at the BMW 3-Series, a 328d will cost $40,250 to buy, and $846.33 per year for diesel. The 320i will cost $33,450 and $1,209.43 per year for gasoline. You would have to own and drive the 328d for 225,000 miles before you see a cost savings from choosing diesel (based on current MSRP, average fuel cost, and…

Funny, because diesel costs more at the pump, and it’s still more expensive to buy and drive a diesel than it is to buy and drive the same gasoline-powered model car. A diesel Chevy Cruze ($23,170, 37mpg combined) will cost you $823.46 in diesel each year for 12,000 miles driven. A gasoline Chevy Cruze ($17,850, 34mpg…

The issue is diesel makes for a filthy shitty fuel for passenger vehicles.

Did anyone name Bully Dog or Banks as a defendant?

Can we bash him for the other times he shared sensitive intelligence with foreigners? At least Hilary never circle-jerked it with the Russians in the Oval Office.

The motherfucker is telling some foreigner with no security clearance or need-to-know about the location and number of US subs. We would court marshall anyone else for the same, but this orange fuck gets a pass? You shitting me?

The funny part is the R33 will probably be able for import before the appeals process is done for these jokers.

The mother fuckers at Ourisman Hyundai of Bowie in Bowie, MD did this to me. Signed everything and drove away in a (too expensive but new-to-me 330Ci) only to get a call the next day asking me to drive back and sign the contract again, saying their financing they told me was in-the-bag fell through and they had to go…

These people need taken out back and beaten with a hose. Also fuck 1320video with rusty pipe.

My dad and his friend drove me 600 miles to BFE, Kentucky to pick up the Willys, and then hauled it 600 miles back to Maryland for the eventually restoration one Thanksgiving weekend in 2005.
