I'm diggin' my Diesel Grand Cherokee. 23+ mpg (mixed driving) and other than some diesel motor noise when it's really cold out, you wouldn't know it was a diesel. Even starting it in the garage you can't smell it... and oh yeah... it FITS in the garage Mine also loves to do full on 4 wheel power drifts in the snow

MSR used his (2wd Diesel GC) to tow his C4 Vette to college station for the last event. He averaged 19mpg towing from Houston to CS and back with the cruise set at 65 mph.

It's a good time for somebody to buy a BMW 335d.

Poor timing for me. Just as I start looking for a diesel truck to replace my gas engined one, the price of diesel goes down, and the used diesel truck market dries up. Oh well, I got time.
