Yes they will allow them to be registered - but the new car has to be purchased in another state. The "temporary" New York ban only applies to the sale of new diesels inside the state - not the use of them. And, before August of 2007, they were also legal for sale in New York.
For early 2008 the Mercedes diesel is also not allowed in California and Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Rhode Island -and maybe Maine, Massachusetts, and Vermont - but it's confusing.
Mercedes states that by mid-2008, their diesel will be 50 state compliant. Same with Honda and Volkswagen.
In regard to diesel fuel prices - yeah - I wonder why diesel is so much higher than reg. gas now - since it used to require less refining, not more. I wonder how much expense has been added with the ultra-low sufur treatment.
My neighbor, who has agricutural plates on his truck - is driving everywhere on dyed farm-fuel. He claims that as a farmer he's allowed. I believe he's in error. Kind of funny though - he has two diesel trucks. A 93 Dodge-Cummins and a 2006 Duramax. The Duramax won't run on the farm -fuel, only the Dodge will. Seems the Duramax has pump-drivers that force the system into "limp mode" when it senses farm-fuel or heating oil.
