I'll repeat myself:
I clearly don't like them but I'm not saying ban them. They should be required to adhere to the same laws as other passenger cars.
I don't think they should be banned. I can't think of a way that it could be done in a fashion that is anything close to fair or wouldn't cause negative side effects (for example in 1989 MD banned 'saturday night specials', and in the next year illegal sales of high capacity 9mm went through the roof... oops! now the crooks are armed with high quality weaponry!) I do think that the various subsidies should be removed because the subsidies are having negative side effects.
As far as which one pollutes more... post the results of your emissions test we'll compare.
Keep in mind that the numbers on the test are in % or ppm, so you have to factor in the relative engine size. A 3.0 liter car with Xppm of NOx is putting out half the total NOx as a 6.0L car with Xppm of NOx at the same RPM.
