I spent almost a year in central America with my wife and 82 diesel westi. Plenty of diesel everywhere, its much cheaper than gas, and the quality is generally pretty good, although I did change my fuel filter every 2 months and once found wood chips floating in it...

Where have the years gone? Why, into the usual vices of the romantic idealist: into sloth amd melancholy, each feeding upon and reinforcing the other, into love and marriage and the begetting of children, into the strenuous maneuvers of earning a living without living to earn, into travel and play and music and drink and talk and laughter, into saving the world - but saving the world was only a hobby. Into watching cloud formations float across our planetary skies. But mostly into sloth and melancholy and I don't regret a moment of it.
