[alfa] In defense of diesel



My son had two Mercedes 300 SD diesels, an 81 and an 85. The 85 had the turbo
waste gate played with and would get up and go real quick and still get almost
30 miles per gallon. And this was running 80 mph.

If you want to have fun get a Mercedes 300 CD (2 door small body) with the 3
liter turbo 5 cylinder and play with the waste gate to give it more boost and
see what it'll do.

The new MB 320 CDI has 368 feet of torque, way more the gasoline job.
