Subtract $6300 off the price of the diesel (4500 ECO credit/discount + 1800 tax credit). Worth it in my opinion!
It is really funny that a diesel purchase is such a challenge for many.
My family owned a mercedes 220D back in the day, And a Diesel VW Rabbit.
I've owned a F2504x4 turbodiesel, and a kubota diesel.
I've rented cars in europe extensively that were diesels...there was ZERO question/fear/concern about "diesel ownership" ... it was no big unknown...
But I suppose I can understand the fear. Rest assured that many, many people own and swear by diesels all over the world. Only in America is it 'newfangled'.
