Pumped Gas into my Diesel
I pumped about 15 gallons of gas into my diesel pickup. A State Trooper there at the station told of someone to call. They showed up in about 45 minutes. Pumped about 20 gallons of fuel out into a bar...

Bottom line - don't buy a diesel vehicle! They're noisy, vibrate like hell, smell bad, make a lot of smoke until they warm up and are often so gutless, someone on a bicycle can out-accelerate you!
I bought a Nissan diesel pick-up a few years ago, sold it within 6 months and vowed "Never again".
He must be messin with us. I tell my friends who are kicking the idea of a diesel around to be careful because once you go diesel you won't go back lol
I wouldn't exactly say he's 'messing' with us, but he's certainly being more than a little frugal in 'full disclosure' area.
If memory serves, prior to the current version, the last time Nissan made a diesel pickup was between 1980 and 1986.
In the early models, prior to 1983?, the engine produced ~63hp, the later models got the bigger engine which produced a whopping 75hp.
But I for one hardly think 30+ years back qualifies as "a few years ago".
Is that a garden tractor engine? :B
