Jeep and Ford are working on a diesel model, they have been talking about it for a year, a diesel SUV.

Volkswagen did make several diesel models,

A Jetta, one of their little pickups, the Golf

Audi made a diesel

BMW and Mercedes

Nissan Sentra had a couple models

Even a little Mitsubishi pickup had a diesel model

Those are the ones off the top of my head.

And now with the alternative energy comming up, they are working on several diesel passenger cars, light trucks and SUVs, then again they may just be doing it for public relations.

However, in California, they made it illegal to sell new diesel cars here, although you can bring in used ones. Go figure. What a joke, yes they belch out smoke, but that is just look, diesel engines burn almost 90% of the fuel, whereas gas engines burn about 1/3 of the fuel, so which one polutes more? One you just don't see it which in my view makes it worse.
