Re: RC: Hauling Truck Emissions

<<What I'd really like to do is just buy a diesel.  However,
living here in California we are all so ecologically
conscientious and such things as diesel engines polute
so much more than even a gas V-10 that it occured to me
to ask y'all out there if anyone is hauling using
a "clean fuel" type truck... ie, propane or liquid
natural gas.>>

When I lived in New Jersey, my diesel car was exempt from emissions
testing.  I was under the impression this was because Diesels don't have
the more harmful emissions.  I have a diesel truck now and I was talking
to a mechanic about them and they really do run totally different from a
gas model.  The octane is lower and they don't combust in the same way,
that is from a spark plug.  I'm not a mechanic, so my understanding is
probably not ideal, but still ...
