I was falsely sold a Volkswagen Beetle

I missed that as I was too busy at Jedi training school

@Bluedoll The Herbie films were several comedies by Disney about a Volkswagen that came to life. The actual event is that Volkswagen have misled thousands of customers by using false testing to fool scientists checking their cars for carbon emissions to make the cars seem to perform better than they do. Getting caught is going to cost the company millions.

@arthurchappell Sorry, just wasn't sure how you wanted this discussion to go. Always thought diesel was a bad way to go for emissions. It is a cheaper fuel and engines last longer but dirty. You have to wonder though if better cars means less power in practice with such high speed demands and more cars on the road does fuel consumption go up? I wonder if the same clean air group takes this into consideration. In the end back to the future scientist actually go it right. "In another cheating case years ago, he said, long-haul trucks were equipped with devices that allowed the engines to gradually discharge more and more harmful nitrogen oxides the longer the vehicle cruised at the same speed. The more emissions, generally speaking, the greater the engine power. "

@Bluedoll I'm betting it won't stop with Volkswagen as other car makers have probably done it too
