I'm curious as to why you don't like the idea.

While I certainly don't aspire to follow Europe's example in most things (especially their penchant for socialism) Europe has diesel available in most models of vehicles. Almost all of their larger vehicles are diesel powered. Here in North America, diesels remain the exception. Given the huge advances and improvements made in the past decade, diesel is an excellent option, especially for vehicles like the H3.

They stink, and for the cost of the diesel, as well as the higher cost of diesel fuel, it is not worth the price. I will be satisifed with a nice V8 .
Desert Dan said it best, for this size vehicle, unless you are pulling a farmyard full of animals, a diesel is not necessary. For a vehicle the size of an H2, a diesel might be ok, but if an option, I would not purchase one.
