Merry joyful xmas.

like an 87 subaru, diesel has stereotypes. I have learned "american" does opposite things for reasons of low self esteem or whatever...reality diasappearing is the number one result. I won't fight it to death or claim a mental illness of my own in my opinion of facts, I just babble about it when I can. Stone cold sober of course. This seems a good time for that...

I believe in mastering fuel, that ousts all fuel injection, even singular point ones.Gas can be mastered, all countries have at least one pride filled automobile of darn near perfection: all extinct now.

To speak on behalf of my freaky frigid locale, diesel is supposed to be hard starting in the cold. Once again, my successful reality proves that wrong too. In fact, when it is -23 degrees F wind howling, and your in a 550hp diesel rig that can't even acknowledge snow swept mini-tornados nor the temperature as you sit there in a t-shirt warm inside and wonder: Why aren't there more diesels?

Speaking of fahrenheit, why not all go metric? why not do away with leap year and ride the nuclear precision of an actual years length to the 256 bit digit and stop more nonsense....Why? is a damn good question. Why have front wheel drive and assymetry, why even have an inline engine, why have rpms over 3500 when we damn well know torque exists even in proper gas engines (87 subaru) . Why have less than 15 inch tires while 13 inch is getting thrown in the trash well used just months versus years after brand new purchase? Why have four injectors? why have injectors at all? why have such a low resolution ECU running it all? why let countries take over after proven facts, and let it bombard people with marketing so full of sh** my dead grandpa is frothing with the spirit of hell...

I am pro diesel, I am pro real engineering. It exists, and we do not have it enough. I am very very curious about the little boxer diesel as far as cars go, and I assumed usa was going to get it...the v8 diesel ought to be quite a success story now. And america does have that, just not in a mack superliner anymore... Time and relaity, maybe this recession will oust a few tards from leaderships making ridiculous decisions about vehicles for the last 35 years
