[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 984053, member: 52972"] Hugh, Again, I am not knocking the virtues of the diesel engine...I am not even knocking the 4 cylinder diesel that VW is putting in their pickup truck. My point is that American consumers were burned a number of times by small cheap diesels like the VW Rabbit and the old Olds 350 of the early-mid 1980's. Small diesels, especially from VW may bring back a lot of bad memories in Americans who thought that the diesel was the way to go back then. VW has a very big job to convice many Americans that a 4 cylinder diesel engine will work in a pickup truck. It may work great, but without driving one, seeing detailed specs or at least getting some feedback from people who have driven one, I will reserve my judgement. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
