Automotive News editor terms diesel in American cars as 'ridiculous'
Diesel Fuel News, Feb 3, 2003
While diesels have potential for wider use in the heavier pickups and SUVs, "the idea that millions of Americans are waiting for diesel engines in their passenger cars is ridiculous," writes Automotive News editor Keith Cram in an editorial last week. "Diesel fuel is hard to find - almost impossible in urban areas.
It's more expensive than gasoline... Let's try to get diesels in big SUVs and other light trucks where there would be a decent market. Then the auto companies can find out who in America really wants one."
