Little diesels are all over Europe. They laugh at us driving a Prius 
thinking 45 mpg is good. Major problem is the fuel. If there were suddenly a 
1,000,000 more diesels on the american highways the price would be $8 a 
gallon from the demand. The refineries are not geared up for diesel and 
would clame 5 years to do so...............
