I'm not an American so I don't feel a gun will "keep me safe" i.e. I won't be attacked or house broken. Though when that happens I can defend myself much better than without. Is it generally that people feel they wo

In the U.S. the major benefit to Diesel is torque. You should try comparing diesel and gas models as equally equipped as possible and see what the cost per mile is. I just bought a 2.5L Subaru Outback, if we had the 2.0L diesel version I wo

Not having grown up in the U.S. I can say that diesel left this same impression for a very long time in the international markets. Only in the past 15 years or so has diesel been tamed for the consumer to not be as noisy and smelly.

Rather than being out of the ordinary it needs to pause applause until we know what the rules are. I can't make a solid determination if I agree until I have seen the rules. From what I know already I'm not in favor. I.e. the trep
