Stay away from the link above, it has a JavaScript that connect to a server in China that uses exploits to install malware onto the PC.

FYI, I work as a researcher for an anti-virus company, that's why I noticed it.

We just took a brief look and confirmed it was malicious. We'll do some further analysis and I'll get back with more info about exploits used and what the malware does.

How would you compare the diesel to the V-6 and V-8 gas versions? How quiet was the diesel when you test drove it?

The diesel is significantly quieter especially in the cabin. Pick up is comparable to either gas engine. Power delivery is smooth and torquey.
