It's the replacement for the Neon (which won't be missed much). That
diesel option, though, does not come from the U.S. We can't order it
-- owing partially to the lingering poor perception the American
public has of crude old diesel designs and partially to some of the
lowest-quality diesel fuel on the planet. I think Daimler-Chrysler
would sell a bundle of Cal*bers if they got 50+ miles per (U.S.)
gallon on a modern diesel engine.
