what's the average state of disrepair of a 6-8 year old diesel passenger car in the states compared to a gasoline powered car of the same age? bonus points if you work in a show where you see these regularly
Around here 8 year old diesels are almost universally run into the ground (they do sell, but I doubt an average buyer of that trash realizes how much money will have to be spent on the upkeep, let alone getting that pile of garbage into the running states)
