For instance the Volkswagen TDI gets 55MPG, some say as much as 60MPG per Canadian gallon. That should be 44 to 48 per US gallon. Now I understand that Volkswagen can't meet the emissions restrictions this year so you can't get a 2007 Volkwagen TDI right now. And yet a Ford Excursion or Lincoln Navigator, Cadillac Escalade etc. is OK but only gets maybe 16 - 20MPG. Question is do they set emission controls on "emissions emitted per gallon" or on the miles travelled? Because if it's based on gallons or running time the TDI would blow it away per 100 miles lets say. It would seem to me that the gas guzzlers would use 5 or six gallons in 100 miles but the TDI might have used only 2 gallons for the same distance. We've got a TDI and an F150. I like the F150 but with the TDI the fuel is hardly a consideration.
