When it aggravates you e v e r y t i m e someone who owns a diesel refers to their "gas pedal" or "gas tank".

Ive learned to say fuel instead of gas, but it took a while.


When you pull in somewhere to get fuel, there are 5-6 open GAS pumps, but the only vehicles around are parked right in front of the only diesel pump in the whole lot while they are getting gas, but blocking the only diesel pump. ARRGGHHHHHHH!!!!!! Makes me want to push them out of the way....

I can second that happened to me before, so frustrating out of all the fuel pumps he gets the furthest pump which happens to be the only one that serves Diesel

You know you drive a Diesel when you can tell other ECO people "Yes I do drive green, I use the green fuel pump"
