    Same thing happened in Europe, governments were sold misleading info from the car manufacturers regarding 'clean diesel', now it's coming back to bite them on the ass big time as there's no such thing. A lot of diesel cars were sold, now they're suffering from pollution in big cities, now lots of cities have banned diesel cars...

    I don't know Kevin. You don't see Chevy, Ford, Ram 2500+ getting fined. Play by the rules, it isn't that hard, and considering they already have so many diesel vehicles already, kinda hard to say "well, we didn't know..."

    I would be down if it had the power, acceleration and tow ratings similar to what they are now (or better).
