The problem is that California's new stricter air standards have effectively legislated diesel automobiles out of the California market. Several eastern states have matched those stricter standards. Auto makers have to effectively engineer diesel cars for a fraction of the market. That's why Chrysler is discontinuing their diesel SUV.

Plan on sticker shock for 2007. To meet the EPA guidelines on diesel it will cost additional 6K to the sales price.
