American Truck Manufactures Goin' Diesel

Finally, were beginning to see more interest in light duty truck diesel engines. In fact, I think I should also be writing about automobiles as well. But, for now there seems to be some competition in the light duty truck sector. Each player wanting to grab the consumers attention with increased fuel economy.

 

Remember the days of the VW diesel rabbit....I sure do. They were noisy, dirty and would run forever. By the way the way the fuel economy is about the same as it is today. Too bad that price of diesel fuel was much higher than regular fuel in those days. The prices of regular fuel is what made the American pubic fall in love with the gas powered automobile. 

 

There is a whole new spark, or shall I say compression, for the diesel powered automobile in the United States. Today's diesel engines are extremely quite, emit zero emissions and most of all the fuel is less costly than regular unleaded gasoline.
