"Too costly"??? Now you sound like the anti-hybrid crowd. Don't be like that close-minded bunch. Besides.... when gasoline rises to $10/gallon by 2020, people will be willing to pay the ~$1000 extra dollars to get ultra-high MPGs.

Then how did this Ford diesel-electric pass SULEV/PZEV California regulations? It wouldn't pass the test if the car were dirty. Your statement that a "PZEV diesel is dirty" makes no sense. It's as clean as any other PZEV car, including the Prius or Civic Hybrid.
