[QUOTE="pen25, post: 2399990, member: 18377"] remember those epa ratings are done via the manuf. then the gov kinda checks the data. its also tested in optimum settings IE highway zero traffic on their test loops and city traffic zero traffic on their test loops. diesels also last 2 to 3 times as long before rebuild and rebuilding is almost surely possible where as gas the engine may just be wore out needing complete replacement. my problem is ecoboost doesnt benefit in town where i normally will be driving. especially since this state doesnt know how to do traffic light timing which would let a driver drive the speed limit and hit green lights. right now on elgen you cant drive through without hitting every other light. on cincinatti it requires you to drive 15 mph to hit the lights after 6pm but during the day 6 to 6pm you will hit at least one light.
