Hmmmmm, how much are homes in Chile? I'm tired of the SoCal rat race!!!

im sure they arent $700,000 for 5 acres and a 3000 Sq/Ft home. thats what its at around me right now.
and you know what, half the people that buy the huge houses now, are never home, always at work trying to pay it off.

I want to check out what a home in a 3rd world country would go for, heh, im sure you could buy a mansion and a large amount of land for a drop in the bucket compared to prices in the U.S. right now.

but anyways this is just getting crazy, im getting the parts and such together to start doing biodiesel FINALLY though, .90 cents a gallon is pretty dang nice compared to 2.95

PJ, I thought you were referring to the fact that Cummins has an engine plant in China.
Mis-interpreted your post.........sorry.

Check out the lines waiting to buy fuel in China

Did you notice in the China picture there were no pick-up-trucks or RV's. Just a bunch of "mosquito crotch rockets" and probably three cylinder diesels, that get a hundred miles to the gallon.

I bet not a single vehicle in that photo would be road legal in the U.S.

We have so many stinkin regulations in this country that we have choked ourselves into submission with red tape!

The majority of cars in China are gassers. Did see few small crewcab trucks, mainly Toyota, Nissan and Isuzu. Usually the vans and larger trucks have diesels. And no waiting lines at China Oil or Sino fuel stations around Shanghai. When I was there gas was 4.25 RMB per liter. About $2 per gallon.
