Hundred Dollar Limit

Are you a displacement snob?
why not just have a chart of MPG with "city, and hwy", but also 5 mile avgs at every 10 mph up to 80? this would be flat and no wind.

VW News: EPA Alleges Volkswagen Used Software on Diesel Vehicles To Skirt Clean-Air Rules
It was emissions and getting better performance out of the engine. Although I'm wondering if Mazda has given up on it since we haven't heard anything since December. Drew, i did hear something like that.... oil issues? William, probably something like that. http://www.greencarreports.com/news/1096944_mazda-diesel-still-on-tap-but-performance-must-be-suitable-exec-says but only stating about the performance, but that does relate to emissions.

VW News: EPA Alleges Volkswagen Used Software on Diesel Vehicles To Skirt Clean-Air Rules
from my understanding, using def does nothing to HP. it does add weight and complexity though. -this is my limited knowledge i have through my work related learning. you can either use DEF, or use EGR.... DEF is to keep the maintenance schedule about the same, while EGR can drastically reduce the life of the internals, at least talking about large medium speeds and medium high speeds - loco engines. I would love to see Mazda's skyactive D in comparison, since it is supposed to meet all emissione with just the catalytic converter and DPF.
