Online diesel research survey for Carnegie Mellon University students

I'm not sure if their goal is to show diesels in a good or bad light... but I took the survey anyway.

I too completed the survey. I asked them in the comment area, what was the purpose of the survey. So we will see what I get back. Besides what can they possibly find that is negative about a diesel engine.

I mentioned that at my last smog check, I had 0. 0% opacacity. NO SMOKE!

I filled it out as well, and asked them what it was for and said I would be willing to answer more questions.

Well from the jist of there website id think it would be positive. It mentioned about a center for engineering, and public policy, hopefully the engineering departments of universitys can help to prove why diesels are better, and get the govt to make the epa regulations diesel friendly. At the current rate the epa is very biased against diesels, just look at the upcomming regulations. If they were unbiased, then we would see diesel vehicles in the U. S. , like in europe. People need to realize that diesels will reduce our dependance on foreign oil and could do so buy up to 25 %. the flip side is that when the epa keeps adding new emissions regs that reduce diesel fuel economy by 15 % every 3 years, they are regulating them out of our society.
