Re: Clean Green Cars: Diesels Are Better Than Current Hybrids in Real World - 06-12-2008, 05:11 AM

If the coming invasion of diesels from Mercedes, BMW, VW and Audi this fall don't do the trick then the diesel cause is lost here IMO. People just can't get past he cost of diesel. It has to be explained that it cost more but you get more MPG, a tough sell to most buyers. If diesel were a dollar of more cheaper than gas diesel sales would be fire right now.
