Over half of new passenger vehicles sold in Europe are diesel.

Mileage over 30 is commonplace higher too.

Yet no American maker offers us this option.

VW (VW, Audi), BMW, Mercedes offer diesels.

Too big to fail has cost imagination, risk taking, etc.

I bought 2 VW Jetta TDI s/w's in 2005 'cause gas went over $2. Studded snow tires largely compensate for no AWD.

As for Zero suggesting lately that 50 mpg cars are a panacea for $4 Diesel is to laugh. Zer0 is a lieing l0ser.
