I believe people who vote with their wallets are often swayed by public opinion, and TV commercials. Accurate knowledge about other options especially in the diesel area are often clouded by something as simple as "where would I buy fuel" and they listen to nothing more than the negative comments of others rather than informing themselves with the facts from people who know the product.

It's kinda like those Republicans you spoke of. Their opinions on Obama (like a choice in a different driving machine) would be far different if it wouldn't cost them the a future election. Some people as usual without accurate knowledge, just have to follow the Jones.
