I love the efficiency of Diesel. Say over a gasoline SUV that drinks gasoline, or an electric car that took 5 to 10 more energy to produce, that has a battery that will last no more than 10 years.

@matuzalem I had a diesel chevette, long ago. After I sold it it lasted years more ( a neighbor bought it)

@gemswinc I like to drive old cars that people discarded.

@matuzalem @gemswinc I've never owned a new vehicle, and I doubt I will ever own a new vehicle.

@NiveusLepus @gemswinc same here. My dad used to buy old station wagons in the 70's, last one cost him 800$ and lasted 7 years.

@matuzalem @gemswinc My GMC Canyon will be 18 next year.

She cost me more than any other vehicle I've ever had, but she's served me well over the last 6 years, and, knock wood, is showing no signs of slowing down at 200k.

We just dropped some money on her motor to keep her fit, but she's a fine truck.

Not fancy, but there's cruise, and AC and a backup camera I had installed. All I need really.

@NiveusLepus @gemswinc I would love that with a Cumins engine ;)

@matuzalem @gemswinc When the engine blows, it's likely I'll drop another one in. If I can afford something like a cumins I'd be right down for it.
