who the fuck buys a car to TRIGGA LE SNOWFAYCKS

dumbasses who bought in way too hard on the contrarian meme that's been ruining Veeky Forums for the past few years

Only in the US where you're terrified of NOx but fuck C02 the atmosphere loves that.

It turns out that the EPA and CARB actually did something right for once by being afraid of NOx and particulate emissions since those are what are actually hazardous to people. Modern gas cars have similar CO2 emissions to diesels too. Small diesels are going to be dead within 10 years

Diesel a best

The only reason I want a diesel is because when the race war cuts the US in half and everyone's trying to kill each other, it'll be easier to find something to put in my engine if it's diesel instead of gas. Until then, gasoline.

EPA is harder on diesel than Europe

>triggers the libshits
>it'll also trigger the cancer in your lungs though

Only in terms of NOx, everything else is equal to or lower.

Malt is for whisky. Save the corn for internal combustion.

Diesel is for trucks and tractors.

It’s really weird to think the nation that drives the most and has the biggest cars and longest distances and cares the least about nature doesnt use diesel

Its loud, smelly, expensive, and causes cancer.

>expensive
Thank your government and oil companies for that idiot. Diesel is cheaper to produce, gives 30% more mpg and makes your car last 30% longer.
Without government intervention it’s cheaper than petrol

And is twice as expensive to fix. You can thank your retarded govt for gas prices also.

It’s not. Once more than 1% of your car fleet uses diesel prices will drop.
Ownership of diesels is cheaper than petrol. There is less depreciation and far less maintenance.

Why do Americans somehow feel like it’s their patriotic duty to pretend diesel is worse for daily usage?

It's 10k for a Cummins rebuild, minimum vs 3.5-5k for a gasser. Ask me how I know.

What are you talking about?
If you have to buy a new car, drive it for 5 years and then sell it, you will find that the TCO (total cost of ownership) of the diesel has been FAR lower than the petrol while he resel value is higher.

If you've actually driven a diesel, you'd know why.

>he's too poor to afford gas
Take the bus.

>redline
Aka 4500 rpm

I drive a diesel quite often when I have to do long trips. They’re smooth as fuck compared to boyracer petrol

Nobody cares you filthy mongrel, cars aren't meant to be cheap. Go take the bus like the other plebs.

>cars aren’t meant to be cheap
Then why do we even discuss anything less than Porsches on here?

NOx is the difficult one though, because stratified charge means there are hot spots and cold spots in the combustion chamber. Injecting in multiple smaller pulses helps but the NOx is still way higher than what you get coming out of a spark ignited engine running stoichiometric.

>if it isn't cheap it has to be very expensive
Go make strawmen somewhere else. If you can't afford fuel and would chose diesel fuck off.

ethanol cost much more to produce than gas
also people prefer to drink it

>can’t afford fuel
You really are American aren’t you?
As I said diesel has far less maintenance and makes your car lose less value.
A petrol car with 250k miles is done for. A diesel can easily do another 100k

I'm European you dipshit. This is why I why I hate diesel, because I know what literal cancer it is. Kills people and automobile manufacturers alike.

Wew lad

DPF delet my friend

And towing a load all day you'll rebuild a petrol at least twice as often.

A lot of people got fucked doing that in the UK - when the DPF inevitably failed they would get it removed and the car remapped at the same time. Better performance, and better economy so it makes sense. However now a DPF is checked on the MOT (annual inspection) and a car will fail if it was manufactured with one and it has been removed.

At the moment some people are gutting them as it is only a visual inspection (for now) but it is pretty obvious if it has been done so a friendly tester is required. They are tightening up on the shit. Not that it really matters, as most people are moving away from diesel now anyway thanks to all the emissions stuff and improved hybrid / petrol technology. Once the major cities start banning diesel cars in the city centre the market will go to shit and they will be worthless, so I can see why people are jumping ship.

So you tow all day long in your .6l cars in Europe?

ThisAnd a plethora of other problems
I consider diesel a situational fuel source

I used to get bronchitis every fucking year in europe, every autumn or spring. Sometimes both. I also smoked but the bronchitis stopped when i went back to burgerland while the smoking didnt stop.

Start vaping my dude, it's great.

So how many weeks did you live in Europe

I dont smoke now, i use snus

180ish weeks

Snus is godlike
Oh alright. I have horrible bronchitis too every year but back then I lived very rural

I blame the particulates from diesels there, because back in burgerland theres more emissions but not particulates.

They say cows shit out more particles than diesels.

If the climate is dry then the shit would matter when it turns into dust i guess.

>did something right for once by being afraid of NOx

What do you do about lightning?

Drives like shit
Heavy
Less power than equivalent gas engine
No revs
Smells like shit

Autism in black boys, cancer for everyone else.

Diesel commercial vehicles are a crime against humanity.

But, disease pays.

Every libtard I know drives a diesel. It’s the official SJW fuel.

What state do you live in where diesels are so plentiful?

>Being this autistic over American Bourbon

You're a fucking pretentious scotch drinker are you? I do enjoy scotch, but American Bourbon is the best whiskey in the world. The typical run of the mill whiskeys that we consider low tier(Jack, Jim, etc) are still better than anything you eurofags can produce. I rather have the shine I make myself than any european bullshit.

>Though most people in Kentucky might be reticent to take a compliment from some foodie Britwriter who can't even spell "cue," Murray heaps praise on Kentucky's finest export in the article, making a case for Buffalo Trace as the best distillery in the world, and citing bourbon distillers' tendency to use virgin barrels for aging as a key contributor to quality.
As for the decline in the quality of Scotch, Murray points to craftsmen re-using barrels that were previously used to age Sherry, resulting in sulfur contamination. “Everyone automatically thinks that the best whisky is made in Scotland, but there are too many bad casks rattling around,”

All of what you’ve said is true except the less power than a Gasser. I tried putting a 4200lb pallet in the back of a F250 Gasser and it would struggle going everywhere. We put the same pallet on my 2500 Cummins and instead of struggling I couldn’t really feel it back there.

I also get worse mpg than any other gasser I feel like. Only way I can get good mpg is if I’m going 80 on the interstate.

diesel engines sound terrible whats wrong with you?
muh emissions is a legitimate problem with diesel as well btw you retarded burger boomers

They sure get good mileage but diesel in normal cars is killing diesel, even in europe.
Toyota is already giving up on diesel, VW will be doing the same soon.
Diesel options should only be available for trucks, 4x4s and SUVs, because they are just way better than petrol.
