GM pretty much ruined it for a lot of them. I understand his point to a extent. He claims the cost of diesel engines are to expensive. He also gives a hugely over inflated price. Just like he said it would cost a hugely over inflated price addition to cars to meet emissions. Bob tows the line that Detroit has been towing for years. If it costs money to change, they want no part of it. If they could, they would still be hacking 1960's tech at 2010 prices. Detroit always says we cant do it and yet they do, do it. People my age for the most part, accept diesels in cars. Most know them as powerful and fuel efficient. If there is one thing that could be done to remove some of the dirty stereo type is to get the service station employees to clean the pump handle area. Most Diesel pumps have gunk built up and the handles are messy. Miss Pointy shoes will balk at putting her hand on that.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[calebe]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 4th 2008 9:20AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
