Modern diesel engines are very reliable and very clean (Tier 4).
The Germans are experts at integrating them into passenger cars.
Audi group takes diesel power seriously, having spent $15 million per
year on the R10 TDI project.
I believe our government has ulterior motives with the recent VW diesel
emissions compliance issue, and I take it with a grain of salt.
If properly maintained you can put 200 to 300k miles on a diesel engine
before you need to crack it open.
Diesel fuel should never cost as much as gasoline because it doesn’t
require as much refinement. Unfortunately the difference comes from
federal taxes.
