The real anger should be directed at EPA and it’s dictatorial NOx rule that basically outlaws the diesel engine in an efficient high MPG tune.

From what I understand NOx isn’t a health issue - it’s a visual issue - it just causes regional haze.

Yes they did cheat the system, but at the same time, they had the nerve to put this ad on TV during the Superbowl...

As someone mentioned on an earlier thread, you use the “at time of testing defense” and back it up with lots of testimony from German Volkswagen engineers and even the judge will be weaping by the end of the trial.

I will save VW lots of money. They can give me one of these defective cars and I won’t even ask them to replace the engine.

Lefties all are going to want something for nothing when there really is nothing wrong with the car, it just does not meet the govenment’s test standard.

The truck diesel guys tried that approach back in the 90s.

I assume they had at lest as good attorneys as VW.
