Diesel Builder magazine
Looked at the current issue of Diesel Builder magazine at the local grocery store. It has improved in content since the last one I saw many months ago. Article on diesel history and some technical articles in it. First issue I saw was mostly product data from the manufacturers. While the content was much improved, it still does not justify a yearly subscription cost (12 issues) of $39.99. When they cut that by 2/3's I might consider subscribing!

Diesel is becoming cool!
I would expect more mags to appear in the coming months/years as more diesels hit the US market. Diesel is/was an undiscovered country to the mainstream publishing business. The executive editors for the half dozen or so diesel mags we have now are astonished at the potential of the market.....
We knew diesel was cool all along!

How about a new bumper sticker: "I was diesel when diesel wasn't cool". On a side note, I have seen a bumper sticker on an old Sub that said: "I was driving this SUV before it was an SUV".
Gotta love it.
