So, we are back, and man is the US behind the times on diesel vehicles.
We had a rental car, Ford Mondeo 4 dr 2.0 diesel 6 speed manual, that thing has some pep and gets great mileage, no smoke and quiet. Why wont the alphabet soup agencies that think they are cleaning the air hear let these cars in the states?
I enjoyed the rattle of diesels the whole trip and the wife mentioned they dont stink like here. And they have emissions equip on them and actually have power.
So anyway , the trip was great, till thursday night when my wallet gat lifted buy a pickpocket out of my front shorts pocket, the ******* bumped me 3 times in the tube"(subway) on a very crowded train, we went to move at the next stop and when I slid forward I checked and is was gone, and so was the guy wife got a good description and we filed a report and all that, but 800 dollars and all my ID stuff gone.
So today is going to be busy filing with ID theft sites and such. Good thing I didnt catch him or??? I might be in jail.
Although the cop said it sounded like I would have been proctecting my wife and property. I liked him.
