    This didn't really seem like news so I'm posting it here...

    On the right side of Long-Term Road Tests, there's currently a poll for diesel, hybrid, or neither. I think we all know how to vote. :) Currently, diesel is way ahead... :(

    I voted for what I think is superior and the future.

    I don't see fuel cells listed, so... "neither"? ;)

    It is there. Fuel cells are hybrids.

    Man... hybrid is dead last. What is up w/that? Diesel fanboys stuffing the ballot?

    Diesel always has a lot of fanboys, like those who say they're libertarian but when push comes to shove they don't vote that way, just as diesel fanboys are still driving gas cars.

    Perhaps they want diesel car that isn't a VW or aging Mercedes.
