Diesel vehicles are objectively superior. I had a mk4 TDI and got 300k miles from the motor before I sold it. It never missed a start, leaked no oil, got 40mpg and was still running strong when I sold her. Miss that vehicle. I got another TDI that is an absolute beast and I own a 7.3 Liter Ford power stroke f250 that has 250k miles and it works perfectly, leaks no oil. Can’t beat the diesels.
