The diesel engines themselves are fine. It is the emission systems and mostly the particulate filters that I am hearing about. The story I hear from the truckers that I know is that the new engines burn burn a third more fuel that the old ones.

Stories from truckers are just that, stories. Almost all of them don't even pay for their own fuel and certainly don't know how much fuel their truck is burning in comparison to older trucks. Truckers are like many people here, they make their decisions based on emotions and how the feel about something rather then actual data.

And there is no escaping the high carbon content of diesel which is blamed for global warming. I think that we can expect a carbon tax on diesel as soon as Trump is out of the White House. Even with the current price of diesel vs gasoline I go gasoline when I have the choice.

While diesel fuel has more carbon, gas engines actually emit higher CO2 emissions than diesel engines. That is a fact. And I can Guarantee you that your Ecoboost engines emit more particulate matter than current diesels too. Heck, they probably even emit more PM than my deleted diesel. NOx on the other hand....

Reason Europeans are not happy with Petrol/Gas engines
