Wait so where are you on the diesel yes/no question
- kazinator 11y agoI don't own a car and cycle to work, appointments and errands (as well as for recreation, on top of running five days a week). Things on wheels with a diesel engine in them tend to be oversized and driven by lowlife assholes who threaten cyclists and other motorists. At times (such as when accelerating or otherwise loaded) they spew noxious black smoke from their unmanaged, unoptimized engines that run fine on 25 octane garbage due to the way they are designed, and are noisy as hell. The regulation for sulphur content in the fuel and the condition of diesel engines must be a joke in Canada. Definitely I don't see such black smoke coming out of trucks, or the pungent smell, in Japan, for instance. The trucks and buses smell similar to an indoor, household kerosene-burning heater, a bit like a paraffin candle; quite different from the acrid stench I'm used to smelling at home. So that's where I am on the diesel yes/no question.
