so i killed a uhaul truck...

I sold my condo and rented this uhaul to move my shit.

When i picked it up, the lady tells me its a diesel truck, gave me this whole thing to make sure not to put gas in it and explained about glowplugs and how to start it. I get in, doesn't sound or drive like a diesel, I dont hear any turbo or see any black plume of smoke when I move it

So i pick up my stuff, drop it off in storage and on the way back to the place stop to fill it up. I put in diesel, as was instructed. Start driving out of the gas station and the truck is barely moving. It then starts going fine but I notice if i press the gas pedal any harder the motor starts makign a grinding noise.

Anyways, as you may have guessed, the lady was wrong and it wasn't a diesel. Luckily they are covering it and I dont have to pay for it, because that'd be expensive
