Kind of like the people who baby diesels and end up carboning-up them to death. Back when I was shopping for an OM603 car a few years ago, I test-drove a 300SDL owned by the proverbial little old lady. She was horrified when I floored it up an on-ramp, and said something like "What are you doing? You're going to blow up the engine!" I didn't buy that one.
