Message	Interesting! I recall sometime last year driving a loaner MB E class diesel and I was completely blown off with it's gas mileage - and it was quiet too. The problem is that diesel is way more than gas and in my neighborhood, there are very few stations that carry diesel. Hopefully that'll change soon.
