I always wanted a diesel car. There were too many VW TDI's around so in 2013 I saved up money to purchase a used 2010 BMW 335d with 36,000 miles on. Now it has 213,000 miles. I am not a fan of belted engines either so that scared me away of the VW TDI also. The BMW has not been without flaw, but most of its gremlins seemed to have been ironed out before its warranty went off at 100k miles. However, just that timing belt change on the VW TDI seems to be more work than anything that has needed to done on my BMW engine so far. However, as I write this I will have to do some work on my BMW. Indications are pointing to needing a new injector or two, but I have not done the full diagnosis yet.
Do not take my comment the wrong way, I do like VW TDI's. I love diesel cars and trucks. I like engines with torque without the need for high rpms to get up hills. Though I may be spoiled with a car with 25 more ft-lbs of torque and 100 more hp then the original Cummins 5.9 in the Ram.

How did I get this way? I came from the suburbs and own a small horse farm in rural Loudoun County, Virginia. You can call me a "weekend farmer." The local farmers do. Does it bother me? No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
