Take your awesome diesel car and head over to China where air quality is carcinogenic.
They cheated and got caught. You are caught up in their cheating and refuse to acknowledge it.
Much easier to blame a politician than a brand you chose to believe in.

Or any interstate/turnpike, better yet watch the news when there's a snowstorm that closes one or at night when there's construction and what will you see. Miles of idling tractor trailers and the very present smell of diesel fumes. Never bought into diesel being the cure all, 37 to 42 mpg every day of the week (my calculations not some live the fantasy numbers from a VW advert) in my "dated tech" '06 Honda Civic.
