I really Wish car manufacturers would learn that not everyone is a tree hugging Eco warrior that wants to save 3 leaves per 500 years by the car they drive emitting 106g of co2/km instead of 130g per km at the expense of regular power and torque. If I wanted to save trees etc I'd walk everywhere. I -
