U.S. Army Gets Fuel Efficient Transport in the Shape of FED Bravo (May 01, 2012) Wonder what the mpg would be on a 5k SUV? Diesel hybrids are the future, but the EPA says diesel fumes kill people.

Fringe Automotive Fuels (Apr 13, 2012) Diesel kills people. F'n EPA!!
Fringe Automotive Fuels (Apr 13, 2012) E85 is a scam. 30% less mpg, uses corn that people eat, doesn't reduce emissions, and I have yet to see an E85 pump. Anywhere. On the other hand, diesel gets at least 30% better mpg and we can't get them in the US. EPA had some BS study that said
