Z you made a very accurate comment earlier by saying "pick to right tool for the job." I for one would have no thoughts of comparing the towing capabilities of a possible diesel LC with any HD diesel PU here in America. Comparing the two just really isn't logical, and anyone who does is just ingnorant to the facts.
Atticus, you are very correct in saying that there is no incentive for "big oil" to change anything. Their record profits surely won't be fed into producing any new refineries..Speaking of which, when
was the last new refinery built ?? 1973 ??!! Quite frankly there is plenty of blame to go around. Ultimately it may fall into the hands of consumers if there is to be any change at all. Attitudes about diesels like Shotts' ("stinky, dirty, noisy, etc..") will have to change if there is any hope for the diesel to gain favor in the USA !!
