I had a 200 mile commute to a job site this morning, a 3 hour meeting, then a 200 mile commute back. I typically drive 27K miles per year and IF the initial cost penalty of the Diesel option was not too severe, I might be a perfect candidate for such a car.
31MPG in my 271K mile 10 year old 9-5 today. Speed was 70 mph and above with the A/C running in the 84 degree temps. How much more would I gain with a diesel?
