[Vwdiesel] New Honda 2.2 Diesel

[David Cook]

Now that is cool!

I'm watching it again because I accidently started it
over and can't get it to fast forward.

Here's a tip for those of us who want to convert
mileage when given in liters/100kilometers...

Use Google!

Just type in the conversion in the search bar and hit
enter.  Google will do the rest!

Example:
"convert 5.4 liters/100 kilometers to mpg " (from the
Honda video)

The only thing is that according to Google, it is only
43.5 MPG.  Not bad, but a TDI can beat that.  I
thought Honda had developed a car that achieved 100 or
200 MPG?  (Although if you look closely, that video is
from June of 2003, so maybe they've developed it way
further since then.)

Anyway, Diesel technology is always interesting to me.
