Lines: 11 I must with Mr. Fargo. Aside from stinking up the place, they sound like Stukas over Poland circa 1940. The people at my apartment complex who have them regularly wake the dead when then try to start them in cold weather. The clouds of black smoke which accompany ignition are lovely-just like living in Gary, Ind. Is saving 5 cents a gallon worth it? Does it offset the cost of buying the diesel to begin with? If the auto designers could solve the smoke and sound problems no one would care, but I am sick of sucking the exhaust from these diesels at stop signs. Mark Kohls ihuxw!thor
