 RE: Diesel
What I've gathered from various discussions on diesel is that there is (or
was) one major obstacle: California.  For many years California flat
outlawed any new diesels.  With that major, major market closed to the auto
makers there was no economic way to develop and start marketing diesel
powered passenger vehicles.  I understand that California has changed now so
who knows what will emerge.
