I think VW is going to release a new Jetta Diesel again, just like the 2006 version.
Don't forget the American attempt at diesels. A diesel Ford Escort (which only about 5 people on the planet knows exist in the US) and that god awful gas v8 converted to diesel use.
I'd probably say, "Thanks! Between your Pious and my sports car, we're emissions neutral!"
And a good looking one don't forget!prizrak said:I am more than happy to drive an economical car (right now it costs me $50/week to fill up on average) but it has to be a fun car to drive.

On the topic of environMENTALists.
My biggest problem with them is that they expect us all to change how we live our lives as opposed to changing pollution sources. I am more than happy to drive an economical car (right now it costs me $50/week to fill up on average) but it has to be a fun car to drive.
FYI the PSU for your Mac is still drawing power whether it is plugged into the computer or not and whether said computer is on. Not sure if there is a difference in the amount of power it draws but it definetly draws power.i do what i can, and its mostly stuff that either makes sense or doesnt mean i have to go out of my way. i Walk places when i can, i recycle stuff because it means i dont have to empty the bin every 2 days (with recycling theres 3 bins instead and to be honest its hardly a chore to put a box in a different bin to food)
and i put my Mac book pro to sleep when i dont use it (it uses 0w anyway 90% of the time and during the day its often running off battery)
+1I hate the fact that they ONLY attack cars. Transportation throughout the world makes up for 20% of all the worlds energy usage. This includes cars, trucks, buses, rail roads, boats, ships, planes, jets, etc... The other 80% is practically ignored. Commercial vehicles use up more fuel and create more smog than privately owned vehicles yet it's the private owners who have to pay the price.
Why the fuck is it still perfectly legal for a 850ci turbo diesel in a cross country semi-truck still allowed to run with no smog equipment? The shipping companies have more money to spend on this shit than I do anyway (or at least can distribute the cost easier on people like me when I use their service). The thing I find funny about it is that diesel is taxed higher because their trucks use more of the roads and do more damage.
