Well ever since purchasing my 300d last april a lot of people I know have been jumping on the diesel bandwagon. My friend bought a 79 240d in June, I bought 2 more euro 300ds (one for brother, other is a project), my math teacher just purchased a 1999 vw jetta tdi, another friend just got a 2003 jetta tdi, one friend is trying to sell his ranger in hopes of getting a VW rabbit diesel, another is contemplating a Mitsubishi Mightymax 4wd turbodiesel and my dad wants either a w123 (my friends uncle has an 83 300d with 90k that we want) or w124 diesel. Also my neighbor across the street is looking for a cdi or e300 turbodiesel.

I'd say thats not bad. I've talked to all of them about the cars and they are all excited about the ability to run bio diesel and of course the better fuel economy.

Has anyone else convinced friends/family to get in the game?
