My son in law is in the Oil (refinery) business, and most of the one's he's associated with have already done a ULSD conversion or in the process of finishing one now. Low Sulphur Diesel fuel will be widely available by year end. Too bad politicians have managed to tax away many of the advantages of Diesel. There must be better ways to get trucks to pay for all their highway destruction than a tax on Diesel fuel...

So, The Saturn Outlook, and it's cousins are a North American designed product? Including the 24V VVt V6? Pretty impressive, from what I have seen.
