From what I understand, the problem with VW diesel sales in CA is has nothing to do with diesel emissions per se, but is tied to total vehicle sales. Since Chrysler/GM/Ford sell many times the number of vehicles in CA that VW sells, they can sell all the diesel pick-ups they want because they're a tiny fraction of their total CA sales. VW, OTOH, had to stop selling the TDI Jetta in CA in less than a year because diesel sales were a much larger chunk of overall VW sales. In CA its perfectly OK to sell a monster 7-liter diesel p/u but illegal to sell 50 mpg Jettas (or 30mpg Tregs). Go figure.

You may have already thought of this, and it's a bit of a hassle; but if the requirement is for "91 Octane", try 1/2 tank of regular (89 Octane) and 1/2 tank of Premium (93 Octane) for a mix of 91 Octane. Depending where you are, it could be a couple of bucks per tankful.

What's the price difference between the V-8 engine and the V-10 Diesel?

....In the new Car and Driver mag, there is a picture of the long wheelbase/3rd row version undergoing winter testing.
....Supposedly should be here in '05 (maybe as an '06 model??). Maybe the "What's new in 2005" board should not have been banished to Read Only so quickly.

This happened to my Ford Explorer after I had it in the shop. It ended up being that my main ground wire was loose and causing the problem (along with a number of others).
