I have been asked by a customer why his diesel truck uses oil. The truck is less than 6 months old, no chuffing of smoke so everything is "A" OK mechanically.

I would like to be as honest as possible without knocking our truck. Cannot find the right words to use

Fact of the week
The origin of "love" as the score zero in tennis is debated, but two main theories prevail. One suggests it's derived from the French word "l'oeuf" (egg) which resembles the shape of the number zero. The other proposes it's related to the Dutch word "lof" meaning "honour" as players might be playing for honour when scoreless.
