[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Watch the netflix show Dirty Money on the VW diesel emissions cheating scandal. I didn't realize that diesel significantly emits more toxins than gas. Watching that would never make me want to own a diesel. You're often breathing in  car fumes as you pull into the driveway or buckle kids in. [/quote]
try your fear mongering elsewhere

Modern diesel cars emit less pollution generally than cars that run on gasoline, says a new six-nation study published today in Scientific Reports whose groundwork was laid in part by an American chemist now working at Université de Montréal.

And since diesel is so much cleaner than before, environmental regulators should increasingly shift their focus to dirtier gasoline-powered cars and other sources of air pollution, says the UdeM scientist, Patrick Hayes.

"Diesel has a bad reputation because you can see the pollution, but it's actually the invisible pollution that comes from gasoline in cars that's worse," said Hayes, 36, an assistant professor at UdeM.
