I’ve been using them for years w/o ever getting noticeable amounts of diesel on my shoes. The trick is not pumping diesel on your shoes.

You realize that gassers are pointless after you’ve tried the latest diesel offerings from BMW,
VWAG, and MB.

In Europe it is much more common to see them as the performance is similar to gasoline yet the economy is notiable better. In addition, there are a number of performance oriented diesel powered cars available (Volkswagen Golf GTD, BMW 320Cd). As always, we here in the US are again behind the curve.

She'd never put on rubber gloves just to pump 'gas'. j i m If they could only figger a way so your shoes didn’t end up stinking up the carpets because those slob truck drivers splashed fuel in a 10′ radius of the pump…and dribbled it back onto the handle.

I've been driving a diesel VW for about three years now, filling up with biodiesel when I can, and I can't wait till we have more than the MB E320CDI in the upper car echelons for diesel cars. My other car is a 330Xi, and I would love to move to an A8 with their excellent 4.2 Diesel. Get a move on it, and for those that have diesel cars already, start using BD! It's cleaner, renewable, and nice on the environment - what's not to love? Yeah, it’s about damn time.
